Abstract

On the basis of experimental data for a windwheel with large-aspect-ratio (up to 14) cylinders, a method making it possible to determine optimal parameters and main characteristics of a windwheel (power, high-speed) is proposed. Effects due to number of cylinders, their aspect ratio and speed of rotation, stream velocity, and generator load are analysed.
