METHOD FOR SWITCHING OFF A VERTICAL-AXIS WIND TURBINE AND CORRESPONDING VERTICAL-AXIS WIND TURBINE

摘要

The invention relates to a method which comprises a step of feathering the rotor (4) of the vertical-axis wind turbine (2), which comprises setting blades (14) according to a setting configuration in which each blade (14) has a respective setting angle and in which the rotor (4) has a single angular position of stable equilibrium relative to the wind direction, while leaving the rotor (4) free to turn so as to position itself relative to the wind direction.
