  By Jai Narvekar, Puja Sutar, Aditya Dhembare, Umesh Shingate, Siddhsh More

  Abstract: Abstract This study aims to comprehensively investigate the performance of Savonius rotor wind turbines through a combination of numerical simulations and experimental testing. Initially, 3-dimensional CAD software Solidworks and ANSYS will be utilized to design detailed models of the turbines. Numerical meshes will then be generated around these models using FLUENT software, incorporating the k-ε turbulence model to simulate fluid flow fields. Parameters such as drag coefficient, lift coefficient, pressure …
