This paper shows the results of an experimental investigation into the effect of changes in
solidity on the performance of a Vertical Axis Wind Turbine. Two VAWT configurations are …

For the purpose of meeting the wind field in urban area, the performances of a newly
invented cross-axis wind turbine (CAWT), which consists of the advantages of horizontal and …

Wind energy has been considered as one of the primary renewable energy sources
globally. In urban areas, due to the irregular arrangement of buildings, small scale wind …

Solidity is an important parameter in the design, manufacture, and operation concerning
energy yield and performance efficiency of VAWTs. This paper examined detailed …

Darrieus-type vertical axis wind turbines (or VAWTs) have the main rotor shaft arranged
vertically and the main components can be located at the base of the turbines. Therefore …

Solidity is an important parameter in the design, manufacture, and operation concerning
energy yield and performance efficiency of VAWTs. This paper examined detailed …

The vertical axis wind turbine aerodynamics are highly complex and unsteady. Inherent in
the operation of VAWTs is the presence of the dynamic stall phenomenon that has a major …

W ostatnich kilku dekadach można zaobserwować duży wzrost zainteresowania energetyką
