Wind Turbine Modeling 3
Scope
• Goalso Develop a fully functional model
of a 1.5 MW wind turbine based on industry standards
o Utilize available wind data for Atlanta’s Airport
o Determine the feasibility of installing a wind turbine in Atlanta
• Design Variableso Rotor Radiuso Tower Height
To develop a model of a wind turbine that will provide its expected utility using the Dymola and Model Center software.
Wind Turbine Modeling 5
Blades
• NACA 4412 Airfoil• Triangular planform.• Assumed to be made
of fiberglass and hollow.
• Moment of inertia of the blade about the base was calculated.
Wind Turbine Modeling 8
Role of Uncertainty• The central composite experiment showed which
uncertain variables have the greatest effect.

Determination of r
• NPV Maximum = $3,856,616.88• NPV Minimum = ($1,173,934.14)
At what dollar amount are we indifferent between the NPV maximum and minimum?• Chosen value = $200,000 • Using a Matlab script the risk aversion
coefficient is 4.2438x10-7
