Abstract
The article is devoted to the actual problem of increasing efficiency in the field of wind energy. Today, in order to overcome the energy crisis in Ukraine, more and more attention is paid to renewable energy sources. Traditionally, in our country, horizontal wind generators are used. Total power which is produced by wind turbines in Ukraine is nearly 1170 MW this is approximately 18% of whole green power produce in our country. The number of «wind farm» gives a lot of options for optimization. Horizontal wind generators characteristics are well studied, and the existing engineering methodologies and design methods make it possible to create efficient wind power plants. However, the efficiency of vertical wind turbines remains underestimated. Especially in matters of their mutual influence. In this regard, the article devoted to the study of the wind generator pattern position influence on their aerodynamic characteristics is relevant. Both analytical and numerical approach were used to carry calculation with different rotors position. It is shown that with some variation of rotors position their total efficiency can be increased.
