• Resumen

  • The design of wind turbine's blades significantly impacts the aerodynamic performance and the overall efficiency of a horizontal axis wind turbine. In this paper, ANSYS simulation is used to examine the aerodynamic properties of the NACA 2412 airfoil. The NACA 2412 profile is widely used in different wind energy due to its favorable aerodynamic characteristics and performance qualities. This study examines aerodynamic parameters such as lift and drag for a range of angles of attack. The simulations aim to provide information on the behavior of the aerodynamic profile using ANSYS coupled with CFD methods, which will lead to a better understanding of its performance and contribute to the optimization of wind turbine design.
