Aerodynamic study of a Savonius type vertical axis wind turbine for different axial positions between the blades

In this work we present a numerical study on the aerodynamic behavior of a vertical axis wind turbine of the Savonius type for different axial positions between the blades (overlap rates a/D). The study focuses on predicting the effect of the axial position of the blades to the torque coefficient an...
