Analysis of multipolar generators operating efficiently in low-speed water and wind flows using ANSYS MAXWELL program

The article analyses generators generating efficient electricity at low speed water and wind flows. High rotating are used in farms micro-hydropower. Reduction gears to provide the with required number of rotations. use reduction power system leads a decrease efficiency additional capital costs. study analyzed multipolar synchronous generators. Both permanent magnet generate electromotive force, distinguished by radial axial placement magnets. In order analyze generators, virtual models were created Ansys Maxwell program. program is electric machines electromagnetic field. these programs determining optimal size new devices great importance saving time improving cost-effectiveness.
