Abstract
This paper analyses the effect of best position blade pitching on the power coefficient of vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) at different tip speed ratios (TSRs). Single Stream Tube (SST) and Double Multiple Stream Tube (DMST) models are used for present analysis. The results indicate that the best pitch position blade method improves the self-starting capacity and power coefficient of turbine. The best position blade pitching curve-1 with 45° pitch angles gives maximum power coefficient for TSRs of 0.5 and the best position blade pitching curve-5 with 15° pitch angle gives maximum coefficient of power about 0.49 for TSR 2.5. The results of SST model are compared with DMST model and presented at the end of this paper.
