  2. Darrieus wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darrieus_wind_turbine

    Fig. 1: A Darrieus wind turbine once used to generate electricity on the Magdalen Islands. The Darrieus wind turbine is a type of vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) used to generate electricity from wind energy. The turbine consists of a number of curved aerofoil blades mounted on a rotating shaft or framework.

    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.

  4. Savonius wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savonius_wind_turbine

    λ is a characteristic of each specific windmill, and for a Savonius rotor λ is typically around unity. For example, an oil-barrel sized Savonius rotor with h= 1 m and r= 0.5 m under a wind of v= 10 m/s, will generate a maximum power of 120 W and a maximum angular speed of 20 rad/s (190 revolutions per minute).

  5. Vertical-axis wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical-axis_wind_turbine

    The world's tallest vertical-axis wind turbine, in Cap-Chat, Quebec Vortexis schematic Vertical axis wind turbine offshore. A vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) is a type of wind turbine where the main rotor shaft is set transverse to the wind while the main components are located at the base of the turbine. This arrangement allows the generator ...

  6. Rotor ship - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotor_ship

    A Magnus rotor used to propel a ship is called a rotor sail and is mounted with its axis vertical. When the wind blows from the side, the Magnus effect creates a forward thrust. The most common form of rotor sail is the Flettner rotor. [4] [failed verification] The wind does not power the rotor, which is rotated by its own power source.

  9. Wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_turbine

    Wind turbine parts other than the rotor blades (including the rotor hub, gearbox, frame, and tower) are largely made of steel. Smaller turbines (as well as megawatt-scale Enercon turbines) have begun using aluminum alloys for these components to make turbines lighter and more efficient.
