Popis: In the design of small wind turbine, narrow structure is often produced at the trailing edge of airfoil, which brings great difficulties to production and processing. In this paper, the airfoil sd7080 is modified by removing part of the airfoil trailing edge to meet the processing technology. Through the calculation and analysis of the Q blade software, part of the airfoil trailing edge is removed, and the airfoil and wind-wheel aerodynamic characteristics are changed. Results: Under the same angle of attack, after removing part of the airfoil trailing edge, The lift coefficient CL and drag coefficient Cd of the airfoil are reduced, α8.6°, the lift-to-drag ratio Cl/Cd slightly increases; After removing the trailing edge of some airfoils, the wind energy utilization coefficient CP, torque and thrust of the wind turbine are slightly reduced, and the aerodynamic performance meets the use requirements. Finally, this paper introduces the blade modeling method, and processes the blade through 3D printing technology. The research provides reference significance for the initial design and processing of small wind turbine blades.
