A Study on a Casing Consisting of Three Flow Deflectors for Performance Improvement of Cross-Flow Wind Turbine

We investigated the effective use of cross-flow wind turbines for small-scale wind power generation to increase the output power by using a casing, which is a kind of wind-collecting device, composed of three flow deflector plates having the shape of a circular-arc airfoil. Drag-type vertical-axis w...
