Experimental and numerical study of a diffuser augmented wind turbine - DAWT

The effect of concentrator-diffuser (C-D) of a shrouded wind turbine was studied. The main objective involved assessing the increment that this device induces in productivity of small wind turbines. Also the aerodynamic performance of two scaled blade models were studied in terms of drag and lift fo...
