Performance analysis of a small-scale Orthopter-type Vertical Axis Wind Turbine by ElCheikh, A.

“…Wind tunnel experiments were carried out to measure the torque of two-, three, and four-bladed turbine, each at a set of different wind speeds and blade aspect ratios. Increasing solidity was achieved by either decreasing the blade aspect ratio or increasing the number of blades, both resulting in a higher peak power coefficient (Cp,max) of the VAWT. …”
