Numerical study on performance of a vertical axis wind rotor with S-shaped blades.

Traditional Savonius wind rotor has simple structure and can operate in any wind direction. However, its aerodynamic efficiency is lower than other types. A novel S-shaped wind rotor with three blades is proposed in order to improve the aerodynamic performance. The blade of the rotor is composed of...
