Comparison of Vertical and Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines

Vertical axis wind turbines (VAWT) include Darrieus, H-Rotor, and Savonius designs, while horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWT) have advantages such as better performance at greater heights and stronger winds. VAWT face challenges like self-starting and commercial success. Both turbine types operate
