Abstract

With the soaring of fuel prices and the increase of environmental issues, research in the field of wind power has known a significant growth around the world. The new concept of the Turbosail has been introduced, but did not reach the practical use stage. Despite its practical interest, little work has been conducted on the Turbosail in the recent years.
