Abstract

Waste Kinematic Energy Recovery System (WKERS) is a system of regenerating waste or used air which is released to the atmosphere by a ventilation fan through ventilation system into a form of wind energy. A wind turbine will be developed to produce electricity by generating the waste air. There is a similar project which has been developed by a researcher. Yet, several problems still occur during the development stage such as the performance of the wind turbine blades. In previous research, a delta wing design is being used as the wind turbine blade design but the performance is not optimised. Hence, the objective of this project is selecting a best blade design to replace the previous delta design. Three blades design which are National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) modern wind turbine blade design, elliptical blade and swept blade will be chosen for performance analysis. These blades design will be designed by using SOLIDWORKS software as well as simulation of the wind flow on the blades also will be conducted. Two types of simulation which are Linear and rotating flow simulation are done to analyse the airflows passes through the propeller. Yet, selection of the best blade design is cannot totally based on the simulations performance analyses, comparison between wind turbine blade design requirements are needed such as aspect ratio and blade twist. Last but not least, NREL blade design has the overall best performance in wind turbine blade design than elliptical and swept blade designs.
