DECREASING THE COST OF WIND TURBINE WITH VERTICALLY INSTALLED ROTOR WHEEL

Abstract

The cost dependence of the most expensive parts of the vertical rotor windmill and their sizes (height and diameter) was studied. The formulae were obtained allowing determining the optimum value of such dependence for different modifications of a windmill: with or without wind concentrator.
