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

Design Of Helical-Blade Rotor Of Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) [PDF]
The vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) with helical-blade has been developed, manufactured and applied in almost all developed countries. In Indonesia, vertical axis wind turbines are still not widely applied compared to horizontal axis wind turbines. Vertical axis wind turbines with helical-blade are still very rare in Indonesia.
