Abstract

See full text

A fluid-turbine system has an improved means of mitigating the effects of excessive fluid velocity on turbine structural components. Spoilers provide a simple mechanical solution that reduces lift, with minimal increase in drag. Spoilers installed on a duct control aerodynamic lift on ducted turbines, specifically in high-wind conditions. An example embodiment comprises a ducted (shrouded) turbine with articulated segments or spoilers, which may be raised toward the central axis. These spoilers reduce or maintain a tower base moment as constant and dampen support structure oscillations.
