Vertical Axis vs. Traditional Wind Turbines: Why "Ice Wind" Is Changing Renewable Energy!
Discover the future of wind energy with our in-depth comparison between vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) and traditional ...
The clean energy craze was nothing like what it is today, back in 2008. A weird-looking machine started to pop up, the ...
EPFL researchers developed optimal pitch profiles for vertical-axis wind turbines using a genetic learning algorithm. The new pitch profiles resulted in a 200% increase in turbine efficiency and a 77% ...
These scale model wind turbines use fixed-pitch blades to evaluate a new vertical axis wind turbine design. Vertical axis wind turbines are easier to install than traditional horizontal axis wind ...
If Don Quixote believed that the windmills in La Mancha were giants, we don't want to imagine what he would think of the ...
Even as more offshore wind projects launch and the turbines they use get bigger, there are questions around offshore wind’s economic viability. Unsurprisingly, hauling huge equipment with multiple ...
Research carried out by Oxford Brookes University has found that vertical turbine designs could make large wind farms more effective. In the study, the researchers compared traditional wind turbines ...
Researchers at the UK’s Oxford Brookes University think wind turbines would be more efficient if they were designed differently. A team from the School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics has ...
The now-familiar sight of traditional propeller wind turbines could be replaced in the future with wind farms containing more compact and efficient vertical turbines. New research from Oxford Brookes ...
Researchers have used a genetic learning algorithm to identify optimal pitch profiles for the blades of vertical-axis wind turbines, which despite their high energy potential, have until now been ...
