  2. Unconventional wind turbines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconventional_wind_turbines

    Counter-rotating wind turbines Light pole wind turbine. Unconventional wind turbines are those that differ significantly from the most common types in use.. As of 2024, the most common type of wind turbine is the three-bladed upwind horizontal-axis wind turbine (HAWT), where the turbine rotor is at the front of the nacelle and facing the wind upstream of its supporting turbine tower.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quietrevolution_wind_turbine

    A qr5 turbine at Bristol Beacon, Bristol Quietrevolution wind turbine at the London Olympic Stadium. Quietrevolution (often stylized with lower-case "q": quietrevolution) is a brand of vertical-axis wind turbines owned since 2014 by Darrieus Ltd previously VWT Power Ltd in the United Kingdom.

  4. Wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_turbine

    If the height of a rooftop mounted turbine tower is approximately 50% of the building height it is near the optimum for maximum wind energy and minimum wind turbulence. While wind speeds within the built environment are generally much lower than at exposed rural sites, [ 52 ] [ 53 ] noise may be a concern and an existing structure may not ...

  7. Vortex Bladeless - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex_Bladeless

    Vortex Bladeless Ltd. is a Spanish technology startup company that is developing a specific type of wind power generator without rotating blades or lubricants. [1] Power is produced from resonant vibrations when wind passes through the turbine and is deflected into vortices in a process called vortex shedding.

  8. Turby wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turby_wind_turbine

    The turbine consists of three vertical symmetrical airfoil blades, each having a helical twist. The helical feature spreads the torque evenly over the entire revolution, thus preventing the destructive pulsations of the straight-bladed giromill (Darrieus turbine). The wind pushes each blade around on both the windward and leeward sides of the ...

  9. Diffuser-augmented wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Diffuser-augmented_wind_turbine

    Turbines equipped with a diffuser-shaped shroud and a broad exit ring generate 2–5 times more power than bare wind turbines for any given wind speed or turbine diameter. [2] Further analysis concludes that the Betz's limit can be exceeded if the wind turbine were to be equipped with a diffuser.
