Abstract
This study is aimed at obtaining basic design data for Savonius wind turbine, available in the domestic wind environments. To the end, the flow field characteristics around the wind turbine attached with 1/4 wind shield were monitored along with numerical analysis. On the top of this, numerical analysis and experiments on the rpm of the turbine rotor were conducted. As a result, this study found that the numerical analysis results squares with the experiment results and the rpm improves by over 70%.
