Analysis and implementation of a drag-type vertical-axis wind turbine for small distributed wind energy systems
This article investigates a drag-type vertical-axis wind turbine that is targeted for small-scale wind energy system applications. Based on aerodynamics models, the three-dimensional simulation studies have been carried out to obtain the force distributions along blades and eventually the torque and...
