Abstract

The Troposkein wind turbine (TWT) is analyzed and developed from its inception. Classic aerofoils are investigated for wind turbines because of their low sensitivity to Reynolds Number. This study aims to determine the most efficient design for a TWT by adjusting the blade profile, number of blades, and aerofoils. Three comprehensive investigations have demonstrated that aerofoils based on the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA)-633108 have a higher energy extraction capacity compared to other surfaces. In addition to these enhancements, the “Hybrid Concept” utilizes piezo-electric patches and solar panels to enhance the generation of electricity from TWT. The TWT model requires the use of substantial hybrid energy extraction procedures for energy results with an average power of 2 kW. The hybrid energy extraction functions are structurally facilitated by the combination of S-glass fibre composite and GY-70-based carbon fibre composite. Therefore, the utilization of hybrid energy extraction renders TWT a highly effective energy harvester.

具有压电能量收集贴片和太阳能板的混合Troposkein风力涡轮机：设计和性能评估

Troposkein风力涡轮机（TWT）从一开始就进行了分析和开发。由于经典翼型对雷诺数的敏感性较低，对其进行了研究。本研究旨在通过调整叶片型线、叶片数量和翼型来确定行波管最有效的设计。三项综合调查表明，基于国家航空咨询委员会(NACA)-633108的机翼与其他表面相比具有更高的能量提取能力。除了这些改进之外，“混合概念”还利用压电贴片和太阳能电池板来增强行波管的发电能力。行波管模型需要使用大量的混合能量提取程序，以获得平均功率为2kw的能量结果。s -玻璃纤维复合材料和gy -70基碳纤维复合材料的结合在结构上促进了混合能量提取功能。因此，混合能量提取的利用使行波管成为一种高效的能量收集器。
