Due to growing interest in wind energy harvesting offshore as well as in the urban environment, vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) have recently received renewed interest …
Accurate prediction of the performance of a vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation requires a domain size that is large enough …
This study designs a deflector to enhance the performance of a three-bladed vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) through the Taguchi method in association with a modified additive …
Vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs), so named because of their vertical axis of rotation, are a sustainable, opportune, and versatile means of producing energy. Their operation is not …
The accuracy of CFD simulations of vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) is known to be significantly associated with the computational parameters, such as azimuthal increment …
Low starting torque is considered as one of the major drawbacks of Darrieus type vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT). Design optimization to overcome this problem by modifying the …
Amidst vertical axis wind turbines, Darrieus turbines stand out for their impressive efficiency. However, these turbines encounter a significant challenge regarding their self-starting …
Unlike horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs), the Darrieus vertical axis wind turbine (H-type VAWT) has been the subject of only a few recent studies directed at improving its self …
