  2. Vertical-axis wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical-axis_wind_turbine

    A vertical axis wind turbine has its axis perpendicular to the wind streamlines and vertical to the ground. A more general term that includes this option is a "transverse axis wind turbine" or "cross-flow wind turbine". For example, the original Darrieus patent, US patent 1835018, includes both options.

  3. Panemone windmill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panemone_windmill

    A panemone windmill is a type of vertical-axis wind turbine. It has a rotating axis positioned vertically, while the wind-catching blades move parallel to the wind. By contrast, the shaft of a horizontal-axis wind turbine (HAWT) points into the wind while its blades move at right-angles to the wind's thrust. It is a rudimentary and inefficient ...

  4. 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

    He described vertical axis wind turbines with curved or V-shaped blades. Illustration of the wind turbine for power generation erected by Josef Friedlaender at the International Electrical Exhibition in Vienna in 1883 James Blyth's electricity-generating wind turbine, photographed in 1891

  6. Savonius wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savonius_wind_turbine

    A Savonius wind turbine in Akihabara, Japan. Savonius wind turbines are a type of vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT), used for converting the force of the wind into torque on a rotating shaft. The turbine consists of a number of aerofoils, usually—but not always—vertically mounted on a rotating shaft or framework, either ground stationed or ...

  7. 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.

    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.

  9. SeaTwirl - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SeaTwirl

    The company intends to use the design to enable the use of cheaper and heavier materials to lower the cost below conventional turbines and generate energy even when the wind is not blowing. [2] [3] [6] [1] [12] If the design is scaled to 430 m long, the company claims that it could provide 4.5 MW of electricity and store 25 MWh of energy. [5]
