15 April – US-based Hunt Aviation, Corp is conducting tests on a high efficiency vertical axis wind turbine prototype that based on company engineering studies may produce over twice as much power ...
Researchers at the University of Kettering in Flint, Michigan are assessing a “wind lens” they say improves the efficiency of wind turbine blades. As reported on the university’s website, the ...
The world’s first urban wind turbine designed by AI has been unveiled in the UK. Called the Birmingham Blade, the turbine is jointly developed by AI design specialists EvoPhase and precision metal ...
An undergraduate student at Penn State University discovered a new approach to a century-old problem, and in doing so made it easier for engineers to develop more efficient wind turbines. The real ...
In fact, the turbines were able to reach an efficiency of 53%, which is just shy of Betz's Law, a theorem that says no wind turbine would be able to convert more than about 59.3% of wind energy into ...
Research carried out by Oxford Brookes University has found that vertical turbine designs could make large wind farms more effective. In the study, the researchers compared traditional wind turbines ...
DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RES, the world’s largest independent renewables company, and the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), have partnered to license and deploy ...
Purdue University engineers have designed a low-speed, high-torque powertrain system to reduce the operation costs, maintenance costs and environmental contamination of turbines that generate wind ...
Researchers added tubercles to the leading edge of wind turbine blades for a 4.8% increase in lift-to-drag ratio. This increase in performance is expected to translate into increased energy output ...
Scientists show a bionic approach combining features of a seagull's wing with an engineered flow control accessory, known as a Gurney flap, can greatly improve wind turbine performance. To achieve the ...
Trying to catch the wind: Research project aims to make offshore wind farms more efficient, powerful
Energy experts generally agree: Part of the answer to supplying the U.S. with clean, renewable, and abundant energy is just offshore, blowin' in the wind. Energy generated by wind turbines floating in ...
