“…Definite aspects of wind turbine diffusers were researched in 2006 in order to find an optimal design [12]. One of these characteristics is the angle at which the diffuser opens up from the slender area to the outlet.…”

“…Matsushima et al [12] presented a diffuser with a brim attached to its outlet. The brim increases the separation at the back of the diffuser and reduces the pressure near the outlet of the diffuser, at the back of the brim (this effect is the same as pressure drag, as earlier defined in section).…”

“…Most of testing done to establish small wind turbine rated power (maximum power output) and power curves (function of power output with increasing wind) is done in wind tunnels, focusing on the electrical components of the wind turbines and not realistically assessing turbine performance in the field, owing to associated costs and inadequate policy. As environmental factors such as temperature, radiation and wind variability affect turbine performance, field testing is essential yet studies assessing the performance of small wind turbines in the field have often focused on the turbine's effect on the local environment or turbulence patterns produced by secondary rotor effects [4][5][6][7][8][9]. Since there are currently no formal standardized testing regulations for their calibration and power output in the North American wind industry [10], it is difficult to access wind turbine data, which is often classed as "commercially sensitive" and thus studies continually rely on more simplistic formulations of power output to assess the changing wind regime caused by global warming [10][11][12][13].…”
