Abstract
In the steps to save our earth from global warming every nation focused on their own way to promote green energy among which the Savonius vertical axis wind turbine is one of the excellent viable solutions for scavenging wind energy in a downtown background, due to distinctive characteristics such as compactness, self-starting ability at light wind, minimum noise level, with relatively reasonable price and simple assembly. However, the traditional Savonius Wind Turbines with semicircular blades has a proportionately low power coefficient together with a high negative torque produced by the returning blade is a crucial disadvantage of this rotor. This work focuses on reviewing and giving an overview on the form of the wings of Savonius Vertical Axis Wind Turbine. This paper also aims to give a run through of the several augmentation approaches used in Savonius rotor over the last four decades. In this paper, a brief on all possible segments and parts of the machine is given after a brief analysis and research on each topic.
