Abstract

The aim of this study is to design and propose the size and layout of buildings which provide the better wind distribution for the higher power generation of wind turbine. At first, this study performed the numerical simulation on wind velocity distribution around a building model to investigate the wind acceleration blowing through buildings. Based on the simulated wind velocity distribution around the building model, the power output of wind turbine was calculated for the assumed wind turbine installation points. In addition, the annual power energy of wind turbine was also calculated by data base of local wind conditions for the sample location to verify the proposed model. As a result, it was confirmed that the wind was accelerated blowing through buildings due to contracted flow between buildings. The ratio of power energy to energy demand which was calculated for the proposed building model was about 12 - 13 %.
