In this paper, the efficiency of the vertical-axial wind power plant at various wind speeds depending on the angle of attack of the rotor blades was investigated. The object of the investigation was a three-bladed Darrieus rotor. During the modeling we used the viscous gas flow model with averaging of turbulent characteristics (Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations for an incompressible fluid. These investigations would allow us to develop new principles for constructing vertical-axial wind turbines with a variable angle of attack of the blades in order to increase the energy efficiency of vertical-axis wind turbine.
