Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An apparatus and method for designing a diffuser-augmented wind turbine with significantly reduced time-averaged loads and significantly reduced dynamic amplification factors. Some embodiments have an annular airfoil in fluid communication with the circumference of a rotor plane, and a vertical surface with a substantially symmetrical aerodynamic form with an articulated portion.
