Airfoil selection and computational study on the torque performance of 4-blade vertical axis wind turbine

This paper contains numerically simulated data for a 4-blade Darrieus rotor type vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT). NACA0012, NACA0015, NACA0018 and NACA0021 airfoil types were analysed for the tangential force they create at different angle of attack. Based on the maximum tangential force generated...
