We have developed a new wind turbine system that consists of a diffuser shroud with a broad-ring brim at the exit periphery and a wind turbine inside it. The brimmed-diffuser shroud plays the role of a device for collecting and accelerating the approaching wind. Emphasis is placed on positioning the brim at the exit of the diffuser shroud. Namely; the brim generates a very low-pressure region in the exit neighborhood of the diffuser by strong vortex formation and draws more mass flow to the wind turbine inside the diffuser shroud. To obtain a higher power output of the shrouded wind turbine; we have examined the optimal form for the brimmed diffuser; such as the diffuser open angle; brim height; hub ratio; centerbody length; inlet shroud shape and so on. As a result; a shrouded wind turbine equipped with a brimmed diffuser has been developed; and demonstrated power augmentation for a given turbine diameter and wind speed by a factor of about five compared to a standard (bare) wind turbine. © 2006 The Japan Society for Aeronautical and Space Sciences;
