In this paper the two-dimensional numerical model of the Savonius vertical axis wind turbine is presented. The numerical model was built and all simulations were carried out using the ANSYS FLUENT CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) software. The dynamic mesh capability of the software was fully exploited to model the flow around the moving rotor of the turbine. This allowed us to simulate turbine operation under prescribed load conditions.
