Computational fluid dynamical analysis of a Savonius vertical axis wind rotor array

The Physics of Fluids
Savonius vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) arrays are being studied for urban and semi-urban wind energy harvesting. With limited ground space in these areas, optimizing energy extraction through various array configurations is crucial.

Design and performance characterization of hybrid vertical axis wind turbine with Savonius and Gorlov blades in low wind regimes: Integrating CFD simulations and experimental approach

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science
The vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) has advantage over horizontal axis wind turbine as it does not depend on wind direction for power generation as well as the installation cost of vertical axis wind turbine is also low. These features of VAWT makes it

Performance of Savonius Rotors: A Review

ECS Transactions, 2022
With the downsizing of the energy sector in India and developing countries, the core demand of electricity power supply is adding another source of constraint to the industrial, infrastructural, and development sectors in India. With the growth of the economy that brings along hazardous degrading our ecosystem viz.

Slatted-blade Savonius wind-rotors

Applied Energy, 1991
Abstract The Savonius rotor can develop a relatively high torque at low rotational speeds and is cheap to build, but it harnesses only a small fraction of the wind energy incident upon it. One initially attractive proposal for augmenting its harnessing effectiveness, was to fit an array of hinged flaps in place of the curved parts of the turbine's ...

Counter-Rotating Savonius Wind Turbine

2020
The mathematical model of a small-scale counter-rotating Savonius wind turbine is constructed and studied. Rotors are located one above the other. Their shafts are coaxial. The shaft of one Savonius rotor carries the rotor of an electric generator, and the shaft of the other carries the stator of the same generator.
