Vertical axis hybrid wind turbine design [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mechatronics and Artificial Intelligence in Engineering, 2020
Wind energy is one of the alternative energy sources that respond positively to both global warming and energy needs, due to the increasing population density and the adverse effects it has brought in recent years. In this study, modification on current design of wind turbines has been demonstrated in order to increase the energy yield obtained from ...
