Optimizing H-Darrieus Wind Turbine Performance with Double-Deflector Design

This study aims to improve an H-Darrieus vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) by imposing a novel double-deflector design. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model was implemented to examine the aerodynamic characteristics of the VAWT with double deflectors. Geometrics factors related to the location...
