<p>Example embodiments are directed to shrouded fluid turbines that include a turbine shroud and a rotor. The turbine shroud includes a an inlet, an outlet and a plurality of mixer lobes circumferentially spaced about the outlet. The rotor can be disposed within the turbine shroud and downstream of the inlet. The rotor includes a hub and at least one rotor blade engaged with the hub. The shrouded fluid turbines further include a passive yaw system for regulating a yaw of the shrouded fluid turbine. The shrouded fluid turbine defines a center of gravity and a center of pressure. The center of gravity can be offset from the center of pressure. Example embodiments are also directed to methods of yawing a shrouded fluid turbine.</p> |
