Exploring Blade Design and Size Optimization in Wind Turbines

Wind Turbines are a crucial power source of the future due to their high efficiency and renewability. The paper briefly discusses the history of wind turbines, different types of turbines currently in the industry, their importance in a sustainable and clean futures, as well as reviews past research work. This study investigates how blade length and windspeed affect the wattage produced by wind turbines through a software simulation. Windspeeds of four different locations of India were considered for the study. It was observed that having a longer blade with even average wind speeds is useful enough to run a windmill farm that is effective. For future works, other parameters for optimization like twist angle, rotational speed, pitch, and yaw can be investigated.
