Abstract

The cylinder blade wind turbine is driven and rotated by that the longitudinal vortex is formed steadily between the cylinder blade and ring-plate placed behind the cylinder blade. In this report, the influence of form factors such as the width of ring-plate and the diameter of the cylinder blade on the blade length for the most effective forming of the longitudinal vortex has been examined. The flanges are attached on a cylinder blade to place the inside and outside of the ring-plate and the effective blade length is controlled by changing their distance. The effective blade length increases as the width of ring-plate increases at a constant diameter of cylinder blade. On the other hand, even if the diameter of cylinder blade is changed, the blade length scarcely changes at a constant width of ring-plate.
