Self-Starting Characteristics and Flow-Induced Rotation of Single- and Dual-Stage Vertical-Axis Wind Turbines

Self-Starting Characteristics and Flow-Induced Rotation of Single- and Dual-Stage Vertical-Axis Wind Turbines

Despite offering promising opportunities for wind energy harvesting in urban environments, vertical axis wind turbines face limitations in terms of poor starting characteristics. In this study, we focus on analyzing improvements offered by dual-stage turbines for a range of wind velocities. Numerica...
