Abstract
Con el fin de maximizar el aprovechamiento y la eficiencia de los aerogeneradores
para la extracción de energía del viento, surge la necesidad de optimizar el diseño de la
tecnología actual y proponer ciertas modificaciones constructivas de sus elementos
fundamentales. Estos rediseños se inspiran en la biomímetica, combinando fundamentos
encontrados en la naturaleza y el análisis aerodinámico, para así, eliminar o retardar el
desprendimiento de capa límite y elevar la potencia extraída por las aspas y extender la vida
útil de los elementos mecánicos.
En este trabajo, se diseña, fabrica y prueba experimentalmente una probeta de un
perfil alar capaz de modificar su morfología de manera autónoma dependiendo de las
condiciones externas de viento. Dicho estudio parte de los resultados preliminares obtenidos
en trabajos de título anteriores, y proporcionar una probeta que se pueda robotizar para
estudios experimentales posteriores. Consecuentemente, la contribución fundamental será la
comprobación de los parámetros constructivos sugeridos para la geometría adaptativa,
optimización del proceso de fabricación de un prototipo y la prueba aerodinámica básica de
dicha probeta en el túnel de viento para evaluar su rendimiento aerodinámico.
With the objective of maximize the use and efficiency of wind turbines for energy extraction from the wind, arise a need to optimize the design of current technology and propose certain constructive modifications of its fundamental elements. These redesigns are inspired by biomimicry, combining fundamentals found in nature and aerodynamic analysis, in order to eliminate or delay boundary layer detachment and raise the power extracted by the blades and extend the useful life of the mechanical elements. In this work, a small wing sample capable of modifying its morphology independently depending on the external wind conditions is designed, manufactured and experimentally tested. This study starts from the preliminary results obtained in previous theses and provides a wing sample that can be robotized for experimental studies. Consequently, the fundamental contribution will be the verification of the constructive parameters suggested for the adaptive geometry, optimization of the manufacturing process of a prototype and the basic aerodynamic test of said sample in the wind tunnel to evaluate their aerodynamic performance.
