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