For a simple version of a VAWT that you can build yourself, [BlueFlower] has published several mechanical drawings that detail the layout of the design. The wind power generator uses 24 magnets ...

Although there are several vertical axis wind turbines listed on greenterrafirma’s page, the one built with 55 gallon drums was especially interesting to us. Although the spouse approval ...

A large aerodynamic enclosure, a nacelle, houses the drive train and generator. Vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWT) are low-noise, omni-directional wind turbines that use one or more propellers or ...

The project will focus on developing new vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) technologies to improve turbine efficiency and the integration into the water production system. Turbine aerodynamics design, ...

I had come into posession of a trashed ceiling fan, what to do?? Of course, turn it into a wind turbine! Here is the result of not having a welder and transforming a solar panel control into a Wind ...

Recently vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) have been more installed in urban areas than before. They are known to perform better in urban regions compared to horizontal axis wind turbines as they do ...

Freen OÜ is transforming urban and rural landscapes with its cutting-edge Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWT) Our mission is to democratize access to wind energy and make it viable in places where it..

This is a complete OpenFOAM case for simulating the flow through a rotating high solidity vertical axis wind turbine. The solution was computed using pimpleDyMFoam. The computational domain consists ...
