H-VAWTs or straight blades VAWTs are the most common turbine architecture employed for small VAWTs. The manufacture of straight, constant chord blades, coupled with transport advantages, make this choice technologically simpler, compared to curved (eggbeater) type curved-bent (Gorlov) type, allowing a large selection materials, and design solutions. Recently, strategies accomplish task zero-emi...

As the wind power market grows rapidly, importance of technology for real-time monitoring and diagnosis turbines is increasing. However, most developed technologies research mainly focus on large horizontal-axis turbines, conducted small- medium-sized rare. In this study, a novel low-cost health system small H-type Darrieus vertical axis turbine proposed. Turbine operating conditions were class...

Every year the number of installed wind power plants in the world increases. The horizontal axis wind turbine is the most common type of turbine but there exist other types. Here, three different wind turbines are considered; the horizontal axis wind turbine and two different concepts of vertical axis wind turbines; the Darrieus turbine and the H-rotor. This paper aims at making a comparative s...

The moving surface boundary-layer control method (MSBC) is a kind of active flow methods that overcomes the adverse pressure gradient and suppresses separation by directly energizing boundary layer near surface. In this study, computational fluid dynamics simulations were performed to investigate feasibility using MSBC improve aerodynamic performance straight-bladed H-Darrieus vertical axis win...

Lift force is an important parameter for the performance evaluation of H-Darrieus wind turbine. The rotational direction streamlined effective on In order to analyze flow characteristics around turbine blades in real-time, a numerical analysis using three-dimensional unsteady Reynold-averaged Navier–Stokes equations has been introduced. Experimental data were obtained from field test facility c...

The demand for electrical energy that continues to increase along with the advancement of civilization and also increasing number people as well reduced level fulfillment availability non-renewable sources, it is necessary have renewable resources capable fulfill these in a more environmental friendly. One natural energies we can use wind energy, which easy get lasts continuously. This research...
