Abstract
This research work is aimed to improve the wind
turbine modeling for a better representation of aerodynamic
forces around the blades. The modeling of forces has been
carried out using the actuator surface hybrid model. This model
combines the blade element method and Navier-Stokes equation
solver. The forces are extracted using real airfoil section of S809
in order to impose on the line which represents the actuator
surface. The near wake is calculated and compared with the
proposed model and the existing models.
