A review of current technical development in vertical axis wind turbine technologies and their braking system for low speed, urban and offshore areas application (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Recently, there are growing interests of using Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) to harvest wind energy from low wind speed in urban areas to relatively high wind speed in offshore wind farms. Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine (HAWT) has been known to hav...

CFD simulation of three-straight-bladed vertical axis wind turbine at low tip speed ratios (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper presents computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of a three-straight-bladed Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) operating at a wind speed of 9 m/s and low Tip Speed Ratio (TSR) ranging from 1.44 to 3.3. The turbine blade has NACA 0021... Read More about CFD simulation of three-straight-bladed vertical axis wind turbine at low tip speed ratios.
