COUNTER-ROTATING DUAL ROTOR WIND TURBINE LAYOUT OPTIMISATION

General energy demand is continuously increasing, thus the generating assets need to be optimised for higher efficiency. Wind turbines are no exception. Their maximum efficiency can determined on a theoretical basis. The limit approached by researches day day, utilizing latest developments in airfoil design, blade structure and new improved ideas conventional unconventional wind turbine layouts. In this paper, we reviewing their place smart cities. Then, an CO-DRWT (counter-rotating dual rotor turbine) analysed with CFD (computational fluid dynamics) code, varying axial radial distances between two turbines. After simulations, power coefficients different configurations calculated. At end of simulations results summarized consequences drawn
