Experimental Study of Darrieus-Savonius Water Turbine with Deflector: Effect of Deflector on the Performance

The reverse force on the returning blade of a water turbine can be reduced by setting a deflector on the returning blade side of a rotor. The deflector configuration can also concentrate the flow which passes through the rotor so that the torque and the power of turbine can be considerably increased...
