Wind power is generating a lot of interest in many countries as a way to produce sustainable and low-cost electrical power. Since the power in the wind is known to be proportional to the cubic power of the wind velocity approaching the wind turbine, this means that any slight increase in wind speed can lead to a substantial increment in the energy output. Power augmentation device is an interesting...
An assembly of two vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) and an enclosure is installed above a cooling tower to harness the discharged wind for electricity generation. The enclosure consists of guide-vanes and diffuser-plates, is used to enhance the rotational speed of the turbines for power augmentation. The angle of the guide-vanes is optimized to ensure the oncoming wind stream impinges the rotor...
