Computational Study of the Vertical Axis Wind Turbines: Wake Dynamics and Generated Torque
A computational study of the aerodynamics of the straight-bladed VAWTs was performed by RNG k − ε and S-A turbulence models. Three different rotor types with NACA0022, NACA0018, and S1223 blade profiles were studied. The main objective was to numerically analyze the torque and the highly unsteady wa...
