Researchers from Murdoch University in Western Australia are hoping to use three-dimensional modelling of urban wind flows to improve the design and efficiency of small wind turbines located in the city […]
Chicago’s the “Windy City,” but EWP’s betting that, sited atop Boston high-rises, its vertical-axis wind turbines can make a sizable dent in buildings’ energy costs. […]
The same turbulent conditions that might require you to “return to your seat and fasten your seatbelt” makes wind turbines less efficient. A new study concludes that unstable atmospheric conditions can reduce wind turbine performance by an average of 15%.
