The utilisation of wind power in buildings has gained significant interest, but deploying wind
turbines in built environments presents unique challenges due to highly turbulent wind …

This study examines the literature on improving the low performance of Savonius wind
turbines, which are a type of vertical axis wind turbine. The literature studies on improving …

This paper proposed a research method for secondary design and parametric analysis of
the contraction section of the shroud to improve the flow-gathering effect of horizontal axis …

Wind energy technology is progressing at an accelerated pace due to the growing global
demand for renewable energy, particularly horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs). Ducted …

Wind energy, renowned for cost-effectiveness and eco-friendliness, addresses global
energy needs amid fossil fuel scarcity and environmental concerns. In low-wind speed …

This study introduces a Vorticity Index (VI) and an Imminent Vortex Separation Condition
(IVSC), which are considered valuable indicators to quantify the vorticity impact on vertical …

One possible way to harness wind more efficiently in low-wind urban areas is to place wind
turbines inside a duct. A known issue of such approach is due to the flow separation that can …

This work presents an approach to the analysis of duct-augmented wind turbines using
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The main objective is to find the optimum duct shape …

Amongst the various natural and readily available renewable energy sources, wind has
been one of the most sought-after sources for energy generation due to its virtually …
