A New Super-Productive VAWT

2009 Asia-Pacific Power and Energy Engineering Conference, 2009
This paper introduces the GWIT EHD VAWT and the logic and history behind its development. We develop a simplified model to compare the performance of EHD VAWTs with conventional propeller machines. GWIT is engaged on a path to optimize the performance of its wind turbines in a wind farm setting.

Theoretical aerodynamic methods for VAWT analysis

Proceedings of the 24th Intersociety Energy Conversion Engineering Conference, 2003
The peculiarities of vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs), such as simple blade building and the absence of an orientation system, are studied. A comparison is made of three theoretical methods quantified by means of an overall parameter as the average coefficient of power.

Performance Predictions of VAWTs With NLF Airfoil Blades

Journal of Solar Energy Engineering, 1997
The successful design of an efficient Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) can be obtained only when appropriate airfoil sections have been selected. Most VAWTs currently operating worldwide use blades of symmetrical NACA airfoil series. As these blades were designed for aviation applications, Sandia National Laboratories developed a family of airfoils ...
