An adapted blockage factor correlation approach in wind tunnel experiments of a Savonius-style wind turbine

An investigation into the blockage correction effects in wind tunnel experiments of a small-scale wind energy conversion system in an open type test section is carried out. The energy conversion system includes a Savonius-style wind turbine (SSWT) and a power measurement assembly. As the available c...
