The Design and Simulation for High-altitude Wind Power Generation System

Today in the promotion of energy conservation, as a clean and renewable resource, wind energy is enjoying more and more attention in the world. To overcome the uncertainty and other limitations of wind, people began to take advantage of high-altitude wind energy. Currently high-altitude wind power technology has improved steadily and put into use gradually, so based on this development, in this paper a wind turbine is flied through the suspension to 300 m altitude by a balloon crust to achieve the greatest degree of wind energy; at the same time in order to efficiently generate electricity, the device also has a solar energy utilization device. Furthermore, by FLUENT software the inner flow field in the turbine has conducted a numerical simulation to verify the feasibility of the system.
