Abstract Nowadays, it is well known that offshore is a promising alternative for energy production. Many researchers have built different kinds of machines. The main problem is that it is very important to fully understand the hydrodynamics of wind turbines to design an optimal mechanism. For this reason, CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) has become a very powerful technique because it solves the governing equations of conservation of mass and momentum so as to obtain the fluid flow characteristics. CFD analyses provide details of the velocity and pressure fields, as well as the hydrodynamic forces, cruising velocity, power and efficiency. This is very useful to identify the advantages and disadvantages of new designs of wind turbines. In this regard, this chapter illustrates how to realize a 3D CFD model of a wind turbine, from the initial stage of CAD designing and meshing to the final stage of analysis of the results.
