Topology optimization parameters of blades of wind turbines

Abstract

This work provides peculiarities of the production of various elements of complex geometric shapes by the newest technologies of additive production. It considers the possibility of modernizing and improving the design of wind turbine blades by the classical method of topological optimization while taking the wind load vector into account and preserving their functional properties. Using the topological optimization algorithm of the Inventor Nastran software environment, the design of a wind turbine blade was automatically generated in accordance with the geometric constraints on the shape and minimization in terms of its weight and maximum rigidity. It also shows the peculiarities of generating a wind turbine blade design with changes in the parameters of topological optimization ([COMPVF], [TOPTMANCONSTR], [TOPGEN], and [TOPTMANCORD]) and the maximum and minimum airflow forces.
