I am curious to see the velocity and pressure distribution part of this scenario. And, by the way, what's the source of this photo/drawing?

I am curious to see (and know) the outcome of this research if it's a half circle.

If this paper is correct, then the company is lying from the very beginning. The simulation shown in their videos are quite opposite to the findings of this research. And, as per this research, wind turbines can perform better a little higher point instead of the edge of the building.

Just got this video where the force exerted by a jet (whether liquid or gaseous) is explained. After hitting the surface, the jet will move radially i.e. perpendicular to the direction of motion and the velocity will become zero in one sense that it's now going perpendicular to the direction of...

This acceleration is my point of interest.

Not at all. In all the videos, it has been shown that the flow accelerates. I just want to know whether such acceleration will occur in my described scenario or not.

You can hear it in this video at 1:40. This video belongs to the same wind turbine. And, just to add, this paper shows that the output from a turbine increases sufficiently if a nozzle, shroud and diffuser is added.

Here is another video.

Kindly go through this video. It shows how the flow encountering the wall accelerates.

Will it stick to the surface while spreading radially and is there any chance of increase in velocity due to such radial spreading?

Thanks for your reply. When you are saying spreading rapidly, does that mean increase in velocity after hitting the plate?

Suppose it's 10 cm.

That's the answer that I have got after asking Gemini. [AI reference link deleted by the Mentors] Ok. Let's make it more precise. We have a 30 cm diameter fan fitted before a circular flat plate of 60 cm diameter and the centres of both are aligned. I want to know whether the flow will...

We all know about Edge effect i.e. when an airflow hits the walls of buildings and its velocity will increase. Some market available shroud augmented wind turbine types are claiming that they used this effect to increase the output of their own designed wind turbine. But, all these are about...

The maximum power achievable by any turbine of 25 cm diameter at 6 m/s wind velocity is 3.91952882475 W. Therefore even just 1 W loss by the bearings is a significant loss for this turbine. And usually RPM is related to moment of inertia of the rotating body. The total mass (including shaft...
