RESUMO
Recent years have seen a rise in interest in wind energy as a useful alternative to harmful energies like fossil fuels. The dual rotor wind turbine (DRWT) offers more rapid rates of wind energy extraction. The current study intends to compare the performance of the turbine with and without the addition of a second rotor. Additionally, it examines how tip speed ratio and phase shift angle will affect DRWT performance. Realizable k-shear stress transport turbulence models are used to solve the three-dimensional, turbulent, stable, and incompressible flow equations for the performance of dual-rotor wind turbines. Domain-independence tests and an impartial mesh test are run to assess the results and ensure their accuracy. The researcher relies on previous studies while constructing the single rotor wind turbine model. This model uses an S826 airfoil. The front and rear rotors are given streamlined representations using ANSYS, according to the researcher. The independent mesh test indicates that the mesh density has 11.5 million elements. The experiment's results show that the DRWT has a significant effect on the efficiency of wind energy.
