AERODYNAMIC FORCES AFFECTING THE H-ROTOR DARRIEUS WIND TURBINE

Aerodynamic Forces Affecting the H-Rotor Darrieus Wind Turbine

Darrieus wind rotor is a vertical axis wind turbine that is a very promising kind of wind converters at remote and domestic locations that have soft and weak wind potential and speed, but from the quantitative comparison with horizontal axis wind turbines, this type of turbines has a weak performance.Additional researches are still needed to develo

Bulk-surface event discrimination in point contact germanium detectors at near-threshold energies with shape-matching pulse-shape methods

Abstract The p-type point-contact germanium (pPCGe) detectors have been widely adopted in searches for low energy physics events such as neutrinos and dark matter.This is due to their enhanced capabilities of background rejection, sensitivity at energies as low as the sub-keV range and particularly fine energy resolution.Nonetheless, the pPCGe is s
