Design, Operation and Diagnostics of a Vertical Axis Wind Turbine
The need for sustainable energy sources becomes greater each year due to the continued depletion of fossil fuels and the resulting energy crisis. Solutions to this problem are potentially in the form of wind turbines which have been receiving increased ...

Response of a savonius rotor to unsteady flow
A Savonius rotor used as a speed measuring device was subjected to a unidirectional unsteady flow having a mean value U0. A comparison between the rotor rotation rate in this unsteady flow and its rotation rate in a steady flow U0 yielded systematic ...

Performance analysis of an idealized Darrieus–Savonius combined vertical axis wind turbine
To investigate the effect of force distributions of each turbine component on the power performance of the Darrieus–Savonius combined vertical axis wind turbine (hybrid VAWT), the hybrid VAWT is modeled as idealized turbine under various force ...

Performance Tests of a Benesh Wind Turbine Rotor and a Savonius Rotor
A study was conducted to compare the performance of a Benesh rotor to that of a Savonius rotor as a wind power generating device. Tests were conducted for each rotor in two different setups in 1992 and 1993, respectively.
