Abstract
Renewable energy is a reason why this study has been chosen. In this paper focused on an analysis of the characteristics of the wind when the wind turbine blade is encountered using a commercial fluid dynamics solver such as Fluent by selecting the impact angle of 5, -5, 10, 15, 20, -10, -15 and -20 degrees. Aerodynamic characteristics such as lift coefficient, drag coefficient, lift to drag ratio has been evaluated in this study. Fluent simulation results will be compared with the result of the milling airfoil tested in wind tunnel. Our goal is to a construction of wind turbine in low wind speed country like Thailand.
