	%X An experimental campaign of measurements for a
Darrieus vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) is presented for open
field conditions. The turbine is characterized by a twisted bladed
design, each blade being placed at a fixed distance from the rotational
shaft. The experimental setup to perform the acquisitions is described.
The results are lower than expected, due to the high influence of the
wind shear.
