Enhancement Attempts for a Three-Bladed Savonius Turbine Performance

In this work, the performance of a new wind turbine design derived from a conventional Savonius turbine is investigated by numerical simulations. The new design consists of three blades without passage between them (closed center). All unsteady computations (which mean computational fluid dynamics a...
