    Project Description:

    In this project, we aim to analyze a Fluid-structure interaction over a HAWT turbine. In this simulation a flow with the speed of 25 m/s heats the turbine, and the turbine itself rotates with 12 RPM. The FSI process was in one-way which we analyzed a fluid effect on the structure.

    The total deformation was around 0.2 m at the tip of the blades. Also, the bending stress and strain have been analyzed too.

    Also a two-way simulation of Fluid-Structure Interaction over HAWT Turbine was previously conducted,

    The geometry is designed in ANSYS Design Modeler software.

    In addition, an unstructured mesh grid is generated using ANSYS Meshing software. As a result, 3,465,821 cells were generated.

    Methodology: Fluid-Structure Interaction over HAWT Turbine

    MRF and FSI have been used to simulate HAWT turbine motion. the velocity is 25 m/s and the operating pressure is 101235 pa. The RPM was set to 12 and the hub has been a simple joint.

    The fluid is simulated in fluent and structure section modeled in ANSYS Structure.

    Results:

    As the results obtain the pressure and speed in the domain and the structure section we obtained total deformation, strain, and stress over the turbine.
