Aerodynamic Performance of VAWT Airfoils: Comparison between Wind Tunnel Testing Using a New Three-Component Strain Gauge Balance and CFD Modelling
Vertical axis wind turbines are an emerging and in-development wind energy technology which are characterized by their complicated aerodynamics. Detached flow conditions, which are typically developed at operational tip speed ratios, demand a rigorous characterization of the airfoils for an accurate...
