Unsteady analysis on the instantaneous forces and moment arms acting on a novel Savonius-style wind turbine

This paper aims to present a transient analysis on the forces acting on a novel two-bladed Savonius-style wind turbine. Two-dimensional unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes equations are solved using shear stress transport k-? turbulence model at a Reynolds number of 1.23 × 10 5 . The instantane...
