CFD Analysis of Torque and Power for Single Rotor, Dual Rotor, and Ducted Dual Rotor Wind Turbine
With the present advancement, a wind turbine needs a wind rotor with high torque and power. The present study aims to enhance the torque and power of wind turbine by employing the ducted dual rotor. In this regard, CFD analysis is performed to analyze the torque and power produced for horizontal axis single rotor bare wind turbine, dual rotor wind turbine, and convergent-divergent ducted type dual rotor wind turbine. The comparative study is conducted to enhance the power and torque for the aforementioned rotor type. The results highlight the maximum value of torque for a dual ducted wind turbine is 36.9% more than a dual rotor at 16 m/s of wind velocity and 92.2 % more than a single rotor at 16 m/s of wind velocity, and the maximum value of the power produced for a dual ducted wind turbine is 40.48% more than a dual rotor at 16 m/s of wind velocity and 139.66% more than a single rotor at 16 m/s of wind velocity. Therefore result suggested that a dual ducted wind turbine is better than a single rotor wind turbine.
