CFD investigation on wind power harvesting from small-scale wind turbines for powering residential buildings in New Zealand. [PDF]
ABSTRACT As an alternative solution, wind power could be harnessed by designing and implementing small‐scale wind turbines for distributed power generation. In this work, 3‐dimensional time‐domain numerical simulations, based on the Reynolds‐Average Navier‐Strokes (RANS) model, are conducted for two categories of small‐scale wind turbines, i.e.

CFD computation of the Savonius rotor
In this paper, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis of a two-dimensional two- -bucket Savonius rotor, using ANSYS Fluent solver, is presented. Computational methods of fluid dynamics are used to estimate the aerodynamic forces acting on the rotor, the torque and the power extracted by the Savonius rotor.

Computational model of Savonius turbine [PDF]
Although vertical axis turbines have long existed, it was not until the beginning of the twentieth century when the Darrieus (1921) and Savonius rotors (1924) appeared; the two most used models nowadays. Savonius rotor was invented by the Finnish engineer Sigurd J Savonius with two half cylinders basic design that rotate around an axis.
