Synopsis
To investigate the power coefficient values, two different horizontal axis wind turbines were designed with the use of two airfoils; NACA 4412, NREL S 809 airfoils. These two horizontal axis wind turbine rotors designed with three blades of 40 cm radius was produced with a 3D printer. Power coefficients were calculated by measuring the torque values generated in these turbines for different tip speed ratios. The homogeneous wind obtained by a moving vehicle is used to produce artificial wind. The highest power efficiency was achieved with NACA 4412 compared to NREL S809, but the power efficiency value was higher with NREL S 809 at values greater than 9 of the tip speed ratios with NACA 4412.
