With the main advantages of simple shape, smart structural and wind direction independence, Straight-bladed vertical axis wind turbines has been increasingly used in …
An overview of extant wind turbine designs is presented. Each concept is evaluated for potential for micro-wind production under poor wind quality situations, such as those seen in …
Currently, the Savonius wind turbine (SWT) has established itself as a reliable wind turbine solution, particularly for small-scale wind farms. It is a reliable form of power generation …
Amidst vertical axis wind turbines, Darrieus turbines stand out for their impressive efficiency. However, these turbines encounter a significant challenge regarding their self-starting …
The objective of this work was to design, simulate and evaluate the performance of an innovative hybrid vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) for obtaining an extended operational …
This research emphasizes designing a straight-bladed Double-Darrieus hybrid vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) with a high power coefficient as well as self-starting capability …
Thanks to the continuous improvement of calculation resources, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is expected to provide in the next few years a cost-effective and accurate …
In this study, a CFD start-up model has been built after conducting the sensitivity studies to evaluate the self-starting behaviour of the H-type vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs). The …
Abstract The Angle of Attack (AOA) of the Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWTs) blades has a dominant role in the generation of the aerodynamic forces and the power generation of the …
