Determination of aerodynamic characteristics of turbine vanes with vertical rotation axis

摘要

Presented below are the results of tests of turbine vanes with vertical rotation axis aimed at determination of their aerodynamic characteristics. Three types of vanes with the profiles in the form of semicylinder, semiellipse, and semiellipse with stabilizing plane have been tested. The last type of vane has been tested with stationary and rotary stabilizing planes.
