- Abstract
In this paper, we compare the aerodynamic characteristics of CSWT and VSWT. As an example, two 1MW wind turbines are selected and calculated based on the blade element momentum method and the aerodynamic characteristic of wind turbines by organizing the MATLAB simulation program is obtained. The results show that VSWT has better the power capture ability than CSWT before the rated wind speed. Toward the VSWT, it should be used in relatively large change of wind speed. Toward the CSWT, it has the advantages of simple structure, reliable property and low costs.
