Multi-objective constrained optimizations of VAWT composite blades based on FEM and PSO [PDF]

open access: yesFME Transactions, 2019
Vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) are attractive tools for wind energy extraction particularly suitable for small consumers or off-grid areas. Although their geometry is simple (here, rectangular blade of constant airfoil is assumed), aerodynamic ...

Numerical Analysis Of The Influence Of Airfoil Asymmetry On Vawt Performance

open access: yes, 2012
This paper presents a model for the evaluation of energy performance and aerodynamic forces acting on a three-bladed small vertical axis Darrieus wind turbine depending on blade chord curvature with respect to rotor axis. The adopted survey methodology is based on an analytical code coupled to a solid modeling software, capable of generating the ...

Performance analyses of a fixed-pitch straight-bladed VAWT with selected low Reynolds number airfoils

open access: yes, 2012
One of the most important factors for cost-effective SB-VAWT product is the selection of an appropriate airfoil to achieve desired aerodynamic performance and to optimise the overall dimensions of the SB-VAWT.
