Investigation of an Innovative Rotor Modification for a Small-Scale Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine

This paper presents the results of the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation of the airflow for a 300 W horizontal axis wind turbine, using additional structural elements which modify the original shape of the rotor in the form of multi-shaped bowls which change the airflow distribution. A t...
