摘要：
Introduction: Since energy production is no longer limited to decentralized systems, but brought into the urban environment, where a huge amount of energy consumption takes place, new technologies are emerging and already known technologies are used in another context. One of these technologies is wind energy. Even though the wind energy is significantly lower in urban districts wind turbines are currently erected and new design of wind turbines could possibly be designed rather cost effective. Several trials and studies in different countries were conducted, where small-scale wind turbines were attached to building walls or mounted on rooftops [1, 2, 3, 4]. The used wind turbine configurations were various, including lift-driven horizontal axis wind turbines, drag-driven vertical axis wind turbines, but also completely new concepts. One essential part for a promising integration of wind energy in an urban context is a well designed wind turbine; well designed for the wind condition it is going to be exposed to. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2011.
