Short summary
In this paper, the Hybrid-Lambda Rotor is scaled to wind tunnel size and validated in wind tunnel experiments. The objectives are to derive a scaling methodology, to investigate the influence of the steep gradients of axial induction along the blade span, and to characterize the near wake. The study reveals complex three-dimensional flow patterns for blade designs with non-uniform loading, and it can offer new inspirations when solving other scaling problems for complex wind turbine systems.
