The performance of Darrieus turbine is studied in this paper with the attachment of ODGV to enhance its performance. The angles of guided vanes are chosen from the literature as α=20° beta=55°. According to this hypothesis the airfoil section of S1046 chosen for performance analysis. The K- ε SST 2 equation model is used for generating the moment for 5 blades turbine with the radius of 0.25m in the 2D configuration. The Chord length is chosen as 78mm and Air velocity is considered as 6m/s for the entire transient simulation. The study of performance and operational parameters have been done on turbine with presence and absence of ODGV.
