Abstract
The wind turbine blade is an important component for harnessing wind energy. It plays a vital role in wind turbine operation. In this work, a study was conducted to investigate the dynamic behavior of an optimal rotary wind turbine blade with a bond graph approach simulated with MATLAB/Simulink. The model is considered as a twisted Rayleigh beam which is made of several sections of the type SG6043 airfoil. This type of airfoil is suitable for low wind conditions, and each section is subjected to aerodynamic loads that are computed using the blade element momentum theory. The bond graph model was developed based on the law of conservation of mass and energy in the systems, and then the model was converted to the MATLAB/Simulink toolbox; results were validated with SG6043 airfoil data and real wind data collected from selected specific sites of Abomsa, Metehara, and Ziway areas in Ethiopia.
