Dependence of Power Characteristics on Savonius Rotor Segmentation [PDF]

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Savonius rotors are large and heavy because they use drag force for propulsion. This leads to a larger investment in comparison to horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) rotors using lift forces.

Design and construction of Savonius rotor [PDF]

open access: yes3C Tecnología_Glosas de innovación aplicadas a la pyme, 2020
Renewable energy sources have been researched for more than a century now. Wind energy; which is often characterized as an unreliable source of energy, is not unreliable if placed at places with smooth wind currents. Savonius rotor as Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) can be used as a standalone power generation device because of its low cost, low cut ...
