Performance Analysis of Two Savonius Rotors Running Side by Side Using The Discrete Vortex Method

The discrete vortex method is used to analyse and predict the flow about two Savonius rotors running side by side at different separations. Two configurations are considered. The torque and power coefficients are computed and compared with the available experimental results presented by Aldoss and N...

Zusammenfassung:The discrete vortex method is used to analyse and predict the flow about two Savonius rotors running side by side at different separations. Two configurations are considered. The torque and power coefficients are computed and compared with the available experimental results presented by Aldoss and Najjar in an earlier paper.
