摘要：In this paper, an experimental validation of numerical results of a Göttingen 188 airfoil wind turbine has been achieved. For thus, a detailed description of the used wind tunnel and the various manipulations performed with the mentioned turbine are presented. The experimental setup was developed to estimate the velocity profiles and the static torque for a wedging angle of the blade equal to β=40°. In these conditions, we have proved that the static torque presents the maximum value compared with the others tested wedging angles. Our goal is to characterize the aerodynamic structure and to validate the numerical results developed using Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) code.
