Vertical turbines could be future for wind farms

Oxford Brookes University The now-familiar sight of traditional propeller wind turbines could be replaced in the future with wind farms containing more compact and efficient vertical turbines. New research from Oxford Brookes University has found that the vertical turbine design is far more efficient than traditional turbines in large scale wind farms, and when set in pairs the vertical turbines increase each other’s performance by up to 15%. A research team from the School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics (ECM) at Oxford Brookes led by Professor Iakovos Tzanakis conducted an in-depth study using more than 11,500 hours of computer simulation to show that wind farms can perform more efficiently by substituting the traditional propeller type Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines (HAWTs), for compact Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWTs).

The future of wind farms is vertical, striking new study claims

The future of wind farms is vertical, striking new study claims Vertical wind turbines are found to be more efficient than horizontal ones. The now-common sight of horizontal wind turbines might be eventually replaced by the scene of wind farms with more compact and efficient vertical turbines. A team of UK researchers found that vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) are considerably more efficient than horizontal axis wind turbines (HATWs) – increasing performance by up to 15% when set in pairs.

Historically, vertical turbines have been relegated to fulfilling a small niche market in commercially available wind turbines. In the UK, for example, all large-scale wind farms with over 40 turbines use horizontal wind turbines. Nevertheless, recent studies are now showing that harnessing wind power using VATWs could also be a very viable option and maybe even
