Abstract:The H-type vertical axis wind turbine(H-VAWT)is a classic lift-driven vertical axis wind turbine, and it has cluster developing potential and advantages.The research method of numerical simu-lation is adopted and the two-dimensional model is established, flow field structure of H-VAWT of the concave-out′s asymmetric airfoils is analyzed, as well as the flow field distribution is analyzed when the blade numbers of H-VAWT of the concave-out′s asymmetric airfoils change. The results showed that the wake turbulence of H-VAWT of the concaver-out′s asymmetric airfoils is more intense than that of the concaver-in′s asymmetric airfoils, and the recovery capability of wake is weaker, thus influencing the distribution of H-VAWT in the wind field, but regardless of the concave-out and concave-in, the distribution of flow field is basically the same that of out flow field near the turbine; With the increase of blade number, the wake turbulence intensity resulting from H-VAWT of the concave-out′s asymmetric airfoils increases, but regardless of the concave-out and concave-in,the turbulence produced is basically the same when blade number is 3.
