Darrieus Turbine

A Darrieus turbine is a type of vertical-axis wind turbine that captures wind energy using curved blades mounted on a vertical shaft. When the wind blows, it causes the blades to spin around, converting wind power into mechanical energy. This design allows the turbine to operate efficiently from any wind direction and is often used to generate electricity in wind farms or small-scale applications. Its smooth, elliptical blades reduce noise and mechanical wear, making it a durable and effective option for harnessing wind energy in diverse environments.
