Comparative evaluation of energy efficiency of vertical and horizontal-axis wind turbines in a limited area

It was compared the work of wind farms, consisting of a vertical-axis and horizontal-axis wind turbines of equal power, with approximately equal swept area. It was estimated the efficiency of use land areas to be allocated for the construction of vertical-axis wind turbines, as well as of horizontal-axis wind turbines. It was counted the value of potential output possible horizontal axis and vertical axis wind turbines, depending on the speed of the wind flow. It was made a comparison of the total usable capacity for the considered types of wind turbines installed in an area of 1 km 2, depending on the speed of the wind flow. It was made the calculation of the net power of wind turbines based on actual wind conditions. It was made the conclusions about the most effective type of wind turbines for use in this territory on the basis of calculations made, as well as the possible solutions to optimize the placement of wind turbines.
