INTEGRASI CFD-FEA FRAMEWORK UNTUK SIMULASI AERODINAMIKA DAN ANALISIS STRUKTUR BILAH HAWT (HORIZONTAL AXIS WIND TURBINE)

---

The development of renewable energy promotes small-scale wind turbines as independent power sources. This study designs and analyzes a small-scale Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine (HAWT) blade with a NACA 2412 airfoil using an integrated Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) framework through a one-way coupling approach. CFD simulations were performed at Tip Speed Ratios (TSR) of 3–7 and wind speeds of 4–12 m/s to obtain torque, turbine power, and coefficient of power (C_p). CFD pressure results were applied as loads in FEA to evaluate total deformation, equivalent elastic strain, and equivalent stress of the blade made from ABS filament. Results indicate optimal aerodynamic performance at TSR 5 and wind speed 10 m/s with a maximum C_p of 35%. Structural analysis shows the blade remains safe up to 12 m/s, although deformations approach a conservative limit of 14% of the blade length. The CFD-FEA one-way coupling effectively illustrates the relationship between aerodynamic performance and structural response. Future studies are recommended to use transient simulations with full rotor blades and two-way coupling to assess the impact of blade deformation on airflow more comprehensively
