Parked and operating load analysis in the aerodynamic design of multi-megawatt-scale floating vertical-axis wind turbines

<p>A good understanding of aerodynamic loading is essential in the design of vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) to properly capture design loads and to estimate the power production. This paper presents a comprehensive aerodynamic design study for a 5 MW Darrieus offshore VAWT in the context...
