Performance Characteristics of an Orthopter-Type Vertical Axis Wind Turbine in Shear Flows
To properly conduct a micro-siting of an orthopter-type vertical axis wind turbine (O-VAWT) in the built environment, this study investigated the effects of horizontal shear flow on the power performance characteristics of an O-VAWT by performing wind tunnel experiments and computational fluid dynam...
