Samenvatting:
This paper presents some design aspects
of a wind powered vehicle. Special
attention is paid to the specification of the
diffuser-rotor combination. The
performance of this combination is verified
by means of wind tunnel testing. The
optimal pitch angle is determined and the
influence of roughness and rotor
misalignment is investigated. In addition to
that, several additions to enhance rotor
performance have been researched. The
successful test campaign has resulted in a
valuable database for use in wind powered
vehicle design and beyond.
