Investigation into the Aerodynamic Performance of a Vertical Axis Wind Turbine with Endplate Design

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
For the past decade, research on vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) has garnered immense interest due to their omnidirectional characteristic, especially the lift-type VAWT.

Effect of the number of blades and solidity on the performance of a vertical axis wind turbine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Two, three and four bladed phgr-shape Vertical Axis Wind Turbines are simulated using a free-wake vortex model. Two versions of the three and four bladed turbines are considered, one having the same chord length as the two-bladed turbine and the other ...

Modelling the aerodynamics of vertical-axis wind turbines in unsteady wind conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Most numerical and experimental studies of the performance of vertical-axis wind turbines have been conducted with the rotors in steady, and thus somewhat artificial, wind conditions - with the result that turbine aerodynamics, under varying wind ...

Vortex capturing vertical axis wind turbine [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2007
An analytical-numerical study is presented for an innovative lift vertical axis turbine whose blades are designed with vortex trapping cavities that act as passive flow control devices. The unsteady flow field past one-bladed and two-bladed turbines is described by a combined analytical and numerical method based on conformal mapping and on a blob ...

Structural optimization design of novel Senegal vertical axis wind turbine [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hebei University of Science and Technology
Aiming at the problem that the wind energy utilization of vertical axis wind turbines is slightly lower than that of horizontal axis wind power,a new wind turbine based on Senegalese (Senegal) type wind turbine was proposed. Firstly, the curvature of the

Increasing the Power Production of Vertical-Axis Wind-Turbine Farms Using Synergistic Clustering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) are being reconsidered as a complementary technology to the more widely used horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWTs) due to their unique suitability for offshore deployments. In addition, field experiments have confirmed
