Abstract

Green energy applications have been a promising research area last two decades.One of these applications is using the power of wind for electrical powergeneration; wind turbines with different designs have great importance in thisfield. However, capturing energy from wind by using traditional wind farms hasseveral limitations such as large installation space, specified airflow conditions,shading effect, noise, and design and maintenance complexity. Bladeless windturbines have been used to convert wind energy into useful kinetic energy toovercome these obstacles. This paper introduces numerical and experimentalinvestigations of a bladeless wind turbine for harvesting energy from wind. Theproposed design has a cylindrical structure to resonate at a wide range of windspeeds and directions, which can maximize the harvested energy. Eigenfrequency simulation modules were developed to determine the structure’s naturalfrequencies and mode shapes which aimed for continuous tunning with thegenerated vortex shed frequency
