Flow-driven rotor simulation of vertical axis tidal turbines: A comparison of helical and straight blades
In this study, flow-driven rotor simulations with a given load are conducted to analyze the operational characteristics of a vertical-axis Darrieus turbine, specifically its self-starting capability and fluctuations in its torque as well as the RPM. These characteristics are typically observed in ex...
