Wind energy is harvested for propulsion and electrical generator at the same time by a unique structure of CES. A CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) code is verified by a case of arc wind sail, and it is used to simulate the pressure and velocity around the CES. The results show that the outlet velocity of air tunnel V<sub>o</sub> and wind velocity V<sub>i</sub> serve as an equation V<sub>o</sub> ≈ 1.31V<sub>i</sub>, which means the CES can effectively improve the conversion efficiency. In addition, it is found that V<sub>o</sub> increases with the tunnel diameter to some extend over which it will keep almost constant.展开更多
