V-shaped arrangements of turbines

A V-shaped arrangement of turbines comprising at least six turbines, wherein:

• the V-shaped arrangement is adapted to be oriented such that a prevalent crosswind enters the opening of the V-shaped arrangement and such that the prevalent crosswind direction is substantially parallel to the axis bisecting the V-shape;
• the vertex of the V-Shaped arrangement comprises a clockwise rotating turbine from which a first arm of the V-shaped arrangement extends in a first direction, and a counterclockwise rotating turbine, proximate to the clockwise rotating turbine, from which a second arm of the V-shaped arrangement extends;
• turbines comprised in the first arm extending in the first direction are clockwise rotating turbines;
• turbines comprised in the second arm extending in the second direction are counterclockwise rotating turbines;
• the turbines in the first arm are arranged in successive pairs of turbines comprising at least one pair of turbines, each successive pair of turbines arranged in a succession along the first arm, each turbine in the pair of turbines located at a distance from the other turbine in the pair which is smaller than a distance to other turbines in the array;
• and
• the turbines in the second arm are arranged in successive pairs of turbines comprising at least one pair of turbines, each successive pair of turbines arranged in a succession along the second arm, each turbine in the pair of turbines located at a distance from the other turbine in the pair which is smaller than a distance to other turbines in the array.
