New vertical axis wind turbines that could be a game-changer for distributed generation powering farms, factories and apartment blocks are being taken for a trial spin by a team in Australia. Flinders ...

Renewable energy has long been a global focus, with wind and solar power ... The low-maintenance, helical vertical-axis turbine features a two-bladed rotor connected to a shaft, brake, and generator.

The main purpose of the measurement over the small scaled prototype vertical axis wind turbine for the wind velocity is to predict the performance of full scaled H-type vertical axis wind turbine.

South Australia’s Flinders University is set to trial a next-generation vertical wind turbine south of Adelaide in a research collaboration with local start-up VAWT-X Energy. Backed by private ...

The growing global focus on reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions has become a central driver of the transition to renewable energy sources, including wind energy. International agreements, such as ...
