Abstract

The key components of a vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) are located at the base of the turbine, with the primary rotor shaft aligned transversely to the wind. Because of this arrangement, maintenance and repairs are made easier because the generator and gearbox are located close to the ground. The parts of a vertical axis wind turbine include the blade, shaft, bearing, frame, and blade support. In short, the rotor rotates because of the dynamic pressure exerted by the wind on the blades. Concurrently, the opposing side of the blades encounters aerodynamic hindrance, occasionally referred to as "drag." We experience something similar when we run or cycle: airflow is constantly working against us. Key Words: Turbine, Dynamic pressure, Rotar resistance, Shaft.
