Nearly all operating wind turbines are horizontal-axis turbines. Vertical-axis turbines have blades that are attached to the top and the bottom of a vertical rotor. Their unique configuration, allowing blades to rotate around a vertical axis, opens possibilities in areas where traditional turbines may face. . What is a Vertical Axis Wind Turbine? The Vertical Axis Wind Turbine is a wind power generation design that puts the main rotor shaft transverse to the wind. The energy converted is based on the axis of rotation of the blades. The small turbines are used for applications such as battery charging for auxiliary power for boats or caravans. . This study presents a theoretical foundation for and the practical test results of a highly efficient vertical-axis wind turbine. It is intended for specialists engaged in research and development in the field of wind energy, as well as for a wider audience interested in the use of wind energy.
