Abstract | ||||
This work describes model tests performed on vertical axis wind buckets. A possible application of this wind rotor would be used to extract energy from slow moving water(no head streams) through small rivers. The mojor use of the design proposed is to provide small amounts of electric power for areas far from the main electric power systems especially for developing countries. The test model has been designed and aerodynamically tested for different wind bucket geometries. | ||||
