Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A calculation code of computed fluid dynamics for horizontal wind turbine has been developed and we gained knowledge about the resolution of computational grids. Using the calculation code, the flows on the blade surface were calculated in detail and showed a singularity in low Reynolds number. It was shown the relationship between wind speeds and thrust forces of a floating offshore wind turbine at constant power of each pitch angle. Considering a barge-type float that could be easily manufactured at port facilities, various coefficients such as the added mass coefficient of a cylindrical float were calculated using the area division method and then the oscillation characteristics of the float setting the offshore wind turbine were analyzed using these coefficients.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
水平軸風車用数値流体計算コードの開発では,流体力に関して通常の計算格子よりも1/10~1/100倍程度の粗い計算格子でも実用的に十分な解析結果が得られる可能性が高いことが示され,得られた成果はコンピュータの計算負荷低減につながる. 浮体式洋上風車の運転において,高速時の風速変化に対する定出力・定スラスト制御運転時における風車回転数とピッチ角の関係が得られ,従来の定回転・定出力運転を行う風車制御に関して自由度を増すことができる.
