Abstract

In order to develop a novel air turbine suitable for OWC based plant,a straight-bladed vertical axis turbine for wave energy conversion has been proposed in this study.Performances of the proposed turbine under steady flow conditions have been investigated experimentally by using a wind tunnel in this study.The tested rotor has some straight blades with a profile of NACA0018,a pitch diameter of 472mm and a width of 0.490m.
