A comparative study based on neutrosophic numbers and the Indeterminate VIKOR method for the selection of three types of vertical axis wind turbines adapted to the conditions of Peru

Abstract

 The use of vertical axis wind turbines to electrify homes without electricity in the Peruvian region of Junín is essential 
to address the challenges of climate change and move towards a more sustainable and environmentally friendly future. The 
objective was set to compare three types of wind turbines, these are Darrieus H, Savonius, and Windside concerning to the 
wind speeds that occur in the Junín region. This is because the operation of these wind turbines in this region is not yet known. 
The following procedure was tracked: first, the design was made and then it was experimented in the wind tunnel laboratory 
of the Faculty of Electrical and Electronic Engineering of the National University of Central Peru. In the study, we took into 
account that there is indeterminacy in the variable wind speed among others, which is why we adapted the traditional variables 
to the use of neutrosophic numbers. Additionally, we carried out a comprehensive study that includes other variables for deci
sion-making. To select the best complete option we asked a group of 3 experts for their evaluations according to several criteria 
and we used the VIKOR method for intervals adapted to neutrosophic numbers.
