  2. 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).
