The demand for wind energy has a high potential as an alternative energy source. Vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) has good developmental potential for unfavourable wind conditions, especially in urban areas, such as low wind speed. This paper aims to conduct a comprehensive numerical analysis of th...
