A new class of diffuser augmented wind turbines (DAWTs) is presented. The new diffuser concept exploits aero-dynamic principles for the creation of high-lift airfoil configurations known from the aircraft industry. Combining this with our objective of obtaining a compact power-efficient design...

An innovative idea on extracting clean energy from man-made wind resources with micro wind turbine system for power generation is introduced in this paper. This system generates on-site clean energy using a micro wind generation system. A vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) with an enclosure is...
