碩士 === 逢甲大學 === 航太與系統工程學系 === 106 === In recent years, technology of clean energy has been well-developed such as solar energy and wind power generation.The technology of wind power generation is one of the representative technologies. The growing consumer demand for clean energy systems such as solar wind turbines and solar panels leads to the rapid advance of renewable energy technologies. The exterior and efficacy of energy systems has improved year by year. To improve competitiveness of the wind turbine,the main way is reduce development time and maximize the efficacy of wind turbine. Meanwhile, the broad usage of Computer-Aided-Design (CAD) software shortens the design time and improves the design quality. To meet the market needs, CAD can be viewed as an efficient tool to enhance the product development. This thesis aims to investigate the mechanical characteristics of the vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) system by changing various parameters such as the wind speed, RPM of the rotor and the angle of installation of the rotor blade,etc. The SolidWorks software is employed to bulid the 3D model of the VAWT system. Subsequently,the model is imported into ANSYS CFX software to bulid the flow field model, perform the dynamic simulation and static simulation on the rotor blade of VAWT system. Finally,the optimal angle of installation of the rotor blade is obtaining by the optimized software and proofed by simulation.
