A Review of the Hybrid Darrieus-Savonius Turbine for Hydrokinetic Applications

In recent years, the cross-flow hydrokinetic turbines (HKTs) have been researched intensively owing to their key characteristics such as independency of flow direction and simple design. The Savonius turbine, being a drag-based device is known to have good starting performance. On the other hand, th...
