Energy available in wind is basically the kinetic
energy of large masses of air moving over the
earth’s surface.

Wind Turbine Power and Torque
Daya yang dihasilkan oleh rotor tergantung pada kecepatan rotor dan kecepatan angin.
Hal ini disebut rasio kecepatan (Speed Ratio) λ.

2.5 Aerodinamika Turbin Angin
• Aerodinamika berhubungan dengan aspek-
aspek yang terjadi akibat pergerakan benda di
udara.
• Inisiatif awal dalam hal ini lebih mengandalkan
pada industri penerbangan.
• Teori aerodinamis yang dikembangkan untuk
pesawat terbang dan helikopter yang
diadopsi untuk menentukan kinerja turbin
angin.
2.5.1 Airfoil
and
Substituting the above expression (2.24) for (pU –pD) in Eq. (2.21),
Comparing Eqs. (2.20) and (2.25) we get
Thus the velocity of the wind stream at the rotor section is the average
of the velocities at its upstream and downstream sides.
and
As we have seen earlier, the power imparted to the wind turbine is due to
the transfer of kinetic energy from the air to the rotor. The mass flow
through the rotor over a unit time is
Hence the power developed by the turbine due to this transfer of kinetic
energy is
Comparing Eq. (2.32) with the expression for power coefficient in Eq. (2.8),
we can see that
For Cp to be maximum,
Thus differentiating Eq. (2.33), equating it to zero and solving, we get a=1/3.
Substituting for a in Eq. (2.33), the maximum theoretical power
coefficient of a horizontal axis wind turbine is 16/27 and the maximum
power produced is
This limit for the power coefficient is known as the Betz limit.
Considering the tangential flow behind the rotor, we introduce another
factor termed as the tangential induction factor “ a’ “ in the analysis
such that:
