Research on Aerodynamic Characteristics of Straight-Bladed Vertical Axis Wind Turbine with S Series Airfoils
Background. In order to investigate the effect of aerodynamic characteristics of S series airfoils on the straight-bladed vertical axis wind turbine (SB-VAWT), numerical simulations and wind tunnel experiments were carried out using a small SB-VAWT model with three kinds of blade airfoils, which are...
