Drag Vs Lift Turbines - What's The Difference?

Hi everyone. Today I bring you a video explaining the differences and quirks between Drag and Lift turbines, the two main types of Vertical Axis Wind Turbine. VAWTs are in general, less efficient than traditional, horizontal turbines, but are more versatile and tolerant of turbulence. They are also omnidirectional, meaning they can receive wind from any direction, without the need for additional yaw systems. While Drag turbines have good self starting torque, Lift turbines perform better at higher speeds Watch the video to find out more! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ #windenergy #windturbine #vawt #turbine #3dprinting #3dprinted #renewableenergy #diytech #diy #helpmemakethismakesense #opensourcehardware #science #technology #tech #stem #offgrid #selfsufficiency #sustainability #decentralization #solarpunk
