Aerodynamic Analysis of Novel Savonius Rotor
International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology, 2021 Abstract: Wind is a renewable form of energy that holds vital solutions to energy crisis that will be faced in the possible future. Apart from the viable lift based turbines that we have been working on, research can be done on drag based turbines that can be installed in urban areas for short power requirements. The research aims at developing a novel
