Abstract
Bladeless wind turbines present an innovative and promising alternative to traditional turbine designs for harnessing wind energy. Unlike conventional turbines with rotating blades, bladeless turbines utilize a different mechanism to capture wind energy, often based on aerodynamic principles such as vortex shedding or oscillatory motion. This paper provides an overview of the concept, design, and working principles of bladeless wind turbines, highlighting their potential advantages such as reduced noise, visual impact, and wildlife disturbance compared to traditional counterparts. Additionally, the challenges and opportunities associated with bladeless turbine technology, including efficiency, scalability, and cost-effectiveness, are discussed. Recent advancements in bladeless turbine research and development, along with real-world applications and performance evaluations, are also examined to assess the viability and future prospects of this innovative approach in the renewable energy landscape.
