Enhancing VAWT Performance with Blade Pitching by davidcolumguilfoyle is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This research article explores the enhancement of Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWTs) performance through a novel variable blade pitching mechanism based on Double Multiple Stream Tube theory. The study investigates two pitching models on 3-bladed NACA0015 rotors, demonstrating significant improvements in torque and lift-to-drag ratio, achieving a peak average coefficient of performance of 0.568. The findings suggest that integrating variable blade pitching can substantially improve VAWT efficiency, particu
