 note = {5th Symposium on Integrating CFD and Experiments in Aerodynamics (October 3-5, 2012, Chofu Aerospace Center, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA)), Chofu, Tokyo, Japan, Blade element momentum (BEM) theory is useful for the design of wind turbines because of its moderate calculation costs, but highly accurate airfoil aerodynamic data are essential in order to make reliable predictions of wind turbine performance. Such data are particularly needed for the design of vertical-axis wind turbines, which operate under a wide range of angles of attack and various Reynolds numbers. The ultimate objective of this study is to establish an aerodynamic characteristics database for various airfoils using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). This report represents the first stage of the study. Two-dimensional CFD was employed to estimate data for a symmetric airfoil for which data is already available in order to examine how accurate this method will be. The aerodynamic data obtained by CFD were employed as actual inputs for a calculation of wind turbine characteristics using BEM theory., 形態: カラー図版あり, Physical characteristics: Original contains color illustrations, 資料番号: AA0062070030, レポート番号: JAXA-SP-13-001E},
