Savonius Helical Rotor Vertical Axis Wind Turbine | Power Generation | Renewable Wind Energy

The power plant (100 kW Installed Capacity) has been installed on the terrace of The F-Block at Pandit Deendayal Energy University, Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India.

The vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) is a type of wind turbine where the main rotor shaft runs vertically, perpendicular to the ground. It operates differently than a horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT), where the rotor shaft is parallel to the ground. VAWTs are typically less common than HAWTs, but they offer some advantages, such as being able to capture wind from all directions and having a more compact design that can fit in smaller spaces.

A Savonius helical rotor wind turbine is a type of vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) that uses a helical rotor shape to convert wind energy into rotational energy for electricity generation. It is named after Finnish engineer S.J. Savonius, who invented the design. This type of turbine is commonly used in small-scale and micro wind power applications, as well as in urban areas due to its low wind speed requirements and its ability to operate in varying wind directions.

There is no load connected I see, only free spin?
