Dynamic Study of a Rooftop Vertical Axis Wind Turbine Tower Based on an Automated Vibration Data Processing Algorithm

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
When constructed on tall building rooftops, the vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) has the potential of power generation in highly urbanized areas. In this paper, the ambient dynamic responses of a rooftop VAWT were investigated.

VAWT in Skew: Stereo-PIV and Vortex Modeling

open access: yes47th AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting including The New Horizons Forum and Aerospace Exposition, 2009
One of the results of the development of wind energy conversion solutions for the built environment is the reappearance of Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWTs). The application of wind turbines in urban environments presents design challenges driven by the complex wind fields experienced in the urban boundary layer.

Reliability of numerical wind tunnels for VAWT simulation

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2016
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) based on the Unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes (URANS) equations have long been widely used to study vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs). Following a comprehensive experimental survey on the wakes downwind of a troposkien-shaped rotor, a campaign of bi-dimensional simulations is presented here, with the aim of ...

Studies on Vertical Axis Wind Turbine - A Review

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Mechanical Sciences, 2022
A VAWT is the one turbine which rotor and shaft are kept in transverse direction to the direction of the wind. Due to this the motor or generator is kept on the ground. There are Darrieus, Savonius and Giromill types of VAWT are there.

Vawt Helix Turbine Design For Microhybrid Plants

open access: yesJURAL RISET RUMPUN ILMU TEKNIK
Conventional power plants that exist today can cause environmental damage, such as air pollution and the erosion of fossil reserves. Therefore, humans continue to innovate to develop environmentally friendly power plants. One of them is the combined wind turbine and solar cell technology to create a more effective solution called a Hybrid power plant ...
