Verticalaxis wind turbines vawts are a type of wind turbine where the main rotor shaft is set vertically and the main components are located at the base of the the advantages of this arrangement are that generators and gearboxes can be placed close to the ground, which makes these components easier to service and repair, and that vawts do not need to be pointed into the wind.
This vertical axis wind turbine structure of a helical savonius type wind is first own design in the worlds wind generator for the first and only in this turbine type is determined by the ideal where the annual average wind speed is low and application areas where space is limited by calculating the appropriate.
The advantage of the vertical shaft is only realy relevant for the direct drive of a centrifugal pump because for such use, the transmission from a horizontal axis to the vertical axis of the pump is be it is possible to start the rotor by a rope which is wound around the pump axis or by using a small savonius.
The sawt, a vertical axis design, solves the three technical problems in the vertical axis wind turbine designer has produced a small vertical wind turbine that sold over 4,000 units in around 60 countries since 2007, and used patents to set up technical how to design a good small verticalaxis wind turbine.
