The methodology for aerodynamic study on a small domestic wind turbine with scoop
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the possibility of improving wind energy capture, under low wind speed conditions, in a built-up area, and the design of a small wind generator for domestic use in such areas.
Small Wind Turbines: A Simulation for Optimal Selection in Uasin-Gishu, Kenya.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the Eldoret Meteorological Station (0.53 o N, 35.28 o E) data for wind energy estimation and used the power law to simulate the wind speeds and wind powers for heights of 10 m, 20 m, 30 m, and 40 m.

Parametric study of a fan-bladed micro-wind turbine
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of a special micro-wind turbine designed to capture wind energy in rural as well as urban environments was investigated, and the experimental results on angular velocity and power developed showed a good agreement with those predicted by the CFD simulation.
