Abstract
Results show how the performance is highly dependent on pitch angle at all Reynolds numbers investigated. Efficiencies over 25% are reached at tip speed ratios (blade to free stream velocity ratio) slightly larger than 2, for pitch angles in the range 4-8°. The appearance of the dead band is conditioned by the combination of Reynolds number and pitch angle.
