A hybrid design of VAWT [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Low-Carbon Technologies, 2010
A modified Darrieus-type windmill is incorporated with a spheroidal-shaped elevated water tank located inside the blade assembly. The blades thus form a shape of elliptical configuration with connection flanges at the top and bottom of the elevated tank portion.

Performance enhancement of an H‐Darrieus vertical axis wind turbine via moving surface boundary‐layer control

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering, 2023
The moving surface boundary‐layer control method (MSBC) is a kind of active flow control methods that overcomes the adverse pressure gradient and suppresses the flow separation by directly energizing the boundary layer near the moving surface.

Effect of Helix Angle on the Performance of Helical Vertical Axis Wind Turbine

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
The energy crisis has forced researchers to look for various non-conventional energy sources. Wind energy is one of the potential sources, and researchers have invested resources in developing different kinds of wind turbines. Vertical axis wind turbines

Direct Measurements of Turbulence and Flow Characteristics of a Vertical Axis Wind Turbine Using the Eddy Covariance Method [PDF]

open access: yesIranica Journal of Energy and Environment, 2016
Turbulence intensity measurements of vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) are essential to detemineitsefficiency and performance. In this study, the eddy covariance (EC) method was used to characterise the flow and directly measure turbulence of a VAWT in a

Influence of pitching on performance of VAWTs [PDF]

open access: yesPAMM, 2013
AbstractSelf‐ starting is the major obstacle to be overcome for successful design of a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT). In the past has been suggested that pitching the turbine blades such that pitch angle is not 90 degrees allows for self‐starting.

Parameter Optimisation of a H-type Three-blade Contra-rotating Vertical-axis Wind Turbine at Low Tip-speed Ratio [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics
Renewable energy sources such as wind energy can alleviate climate deterioration and the global energy crisis, and a major piece of equipment for capturing wind energy is the vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT), with contra-rotating VAWTs (CR-VAWTs) having

Surrogate-Based Design Optimization of a H-Darrieus Wind Turbine Comparing Classical Response Surface, Artificial Neural Networks, and Kriging [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2023
Clean energy sources like wind energy have been receiving much attention, and great emphasis has been given to the design and optimization of horizontal axis wind turbines, but just as important are the vertical axis wind turbines that can be used for ...

Application of Circulation Controlled Blades for Vertical Axis Wind Turbines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The blades of a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) rotor see an inconsistent angle of attack through its rotation. Consequently, VAWT blades generally use symmetrical aerofoils with a lower lift-to-drag ratio than cambered aerofoils tailored to maximise ...
