Abstract
In order to enable the offshore wind farm to produce electric energy efficiently, stably and economically, the optimization method of CSA-KJ airfoil is proposed, and the optimized CSA-KJ4412 airfoil is obtained, and the aerodynamic characteristics of the airfoil are compared and analyzed. Combined with Wilson method, the high-power CSAKJ4412-08 wind turbine blade is designed, the flow field characteristics of the blade under different working conditions are simulated and analyzed, and its power is verified. The results show that compared with the NACA4412 airfoil, the average lift-drag ratio coefficient and the maximum value of the CSA-KJ4412 airfoil increase. Meanwhile, the pressure distribution rises, and the aerodynamic characteristic is better. The fluid around CSAKJ4412-08 blade at different attack angles is attached to the blade surface tightly for adhesive flow, and no stall phenomenon is identified. The pressure on the suction and pressure surfaces for the optimized CSAKJ4412-08 blade shows an opposite trend as the wingspan in-creases, leading to an increase in the pressure difference between the upper and lower surfaces, thereby improving the lift of the blade. In the range of –30° to 30° attack angle, the power of CSAKJ4412-08 blade increases first and then decreases as the attack angle rises, and the ratio of the maximum power to the rated value reaches 71.38 %, indicating that the optimized CSAKJ4412-08 blade exhibits better aerodynamic characteristics. The relevant results can provide technical reference for the optimal design of wind turbine blades.
