Use of Taguchi Methods in Designing an Experimental Model of Wind Turbine with Vertical Axis with Curved Sheet Blades
Keywords:
Taguchi methods, TM, VAWT, microWT
Abstract
Increasing the efficiency of the conversion of electricity into light energy (UV LEDs) has made possible a new stage in the development of vertical axis wind turbines by compensating for the small wind energy conversion efficiency (14.81%). The work is based on the use of Taguchi methods (TM) in increasing the efficiency of a wind turbine with vertical axis blades made of deformed aluminium foil. Experiments were carried out in the wind tunnel to confirm the models selected by the QE procedure.
