Numerical investigation of airflow through a Savonius rotor [PDF]

open access: yesWind Energy, 2013
ABSTRACTThe aim of this report is to present a model of a rigid‐rotor system based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD), which is applied on a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) research. Its originality results from the use of the average value of the variable rotational speed method taken in a periodic steady‐state (PSS) of the VAWT rotor instead of ...
