Aerodynamic performance evaluation of a novel savonius-style wind turbine under an oriented jet

The Savonius-style wind turbine, a class of vertical axis wind turbines, can be a viable option for small scale off-grid electricity generation in the context of renewable energy applications. A better self-starting capability at low wind speeds is one of the major advantages of this turbine. Howeve...
