Performance of Savonius Rotor with Slits in the Blades.
This paper is focused on the improvement of the performance of the Savonius rotor. For this purpose, the flow inside and outside the rotor is observed by means of a flow visualization method. The behavior of the vortices shed from both sides of the rotor is measured by means of hot-wire flow velocity meters.
