Numerical Study of a Novel Concept for Manufacturing Savonius Turbines with Twisted Blades
This work presents a numerical study of the aerodynamic performance and the resulting flow field of two novel Savonius wind turbines with twisted blades. The novelty relies on the blade manufacturing process which is characterized by a `twisted cut’ through the central axis of a hollow cylinder (tub...
