| Summary: | For the first time, experimental studies have been performed to assess the effect of flaps with triangular elements on the operation of the N-Darrieus and Savonius rotors. It has been established that the rotational speed of the original N-Darrieus and Savonius rotors having blades with flaps is greater than the rotation frequency of the N-Darrieus and Savonius rotors of the known construction by 18%, and the power factors of the N-Darrieus and Savonius rotors are for 17% and 19% more. Optimization of the geometrical parameters of the blades can lead to an increase in the power factor of the N-Darrieus rotor up to a value of 0.72, which is higher than the maximum possible value of 0.45 for the horizontal axis wind turbine. It is advisable to aggregate N-Darrieus rotors with Savonius rotors having a large starting torque. The upgraded N-Darrieus and Savonius rotors, as well as the combined rotors based on them, can be used in power supply systems for various objects on land and at sea.
