الملخص

In this paper, a theoretical investigation of the impact of varying the blade inclination angle b on the power coefficient of vertical-axis wind turbines equipped with straight blades has been demonstration, where the inclination angle was modified from twenty-five degrees to eighty-five degrees. Within the framework of this study, the term SS-VAWT was assigned to refer to the rotor which is the subject of the research. The "Multi Stream Tube-MST" mathematical model was used after some of its equations were modified to be consistent with the geometrical shape of the SS-VAWT rotor. A computer program was designed using the "Microsoft Visual Basic" programming language as an application of the mathematical model used, which led to the effectiveness of this program and compared its final results with previous experimental results from other studies, this work was carried out on twelve obligatory SS-VAWT, which are classified into four namely H group which is characterized by rotor high change effect, R group which is characterized by diameter effect, N group which is characterized by number of blades effect and C group influenced by the length of blade chord line. The results are represented by power curves as a function of tip speed ratio. The behavior of the curves for each case was verified and compared to determine the optimum case. All results were taken in the small range of tip speed ratio λ0 extending from 0 to 2.8. Since the Cp coefficient and the λ0 coefficient are dimensionless values, the results can be applied to large-sized air rotors, provided that there is geometric similarity. Because they found that the feather's 45-degree tilt and location reduce the problem of starting self-motion.
