CFD computation of the Savonius rotor [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, 2015
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.

Improved performances of the wind inlet of the Savonius rotor [PDF]

open access: yesVojnotehnicki glasnik, 2017
In this study we analyzed the design changes through increasing vertical angles of the top and bottom plates of the wind inlet of a Savonius rotor, in order to obtain better results and better system performances. A designed wind inlet is placed in the front part of the rotor in order to prevent negative torque opposing rotor rotation.
