Numerical and Experimental Study of the Blade Profile of a Savonius Type Rotor Implementing a Multi-Blade Geometry

In the present study, the implementation of multi-blade profiles in a Savonius rotor was evaluated in order to increase the pressure in the blade’s intrados and, thus, decrease motion resistance. The geometric proportions of the secondary element were determined, which maximized the rotor’s performa...
