Vertical Axis Wind Turbine Case Study
This case study investigates the generator of a large offshore Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT). In particular this case study focuses on the effect of the inherent cyclic torque loading of the VAWT on the generator in terms of the costs and losses experienced. A spectrum of torque control strategies were created based on the ratio q of the allowed electrical torque variation to the mechanical...
متن کاملNumerical Investigation of S822 Wind Turbine Airfoil
We carried out direct numerical simulations of the flow past a two-dimensional S822 wind turbine blade section at a chord Reynolds number of Re=100,000 and an angle of attack of α = 5deg. Without blade rotation the separated boundary layer “rolls up” into spanwise vortices which then “break up” into smaller scale structures leading to transition to turbulence. Simulation results compare favorab...
متن کاملExperimental Studies on Savonius-type Vertical Axis Turbine for Low Marine Current Velocity
Renewable energy resources need to be explored to maintain and meet energy demand and replace the slowly depleting fossil fuels. Malaysia, surrounded by sea with long coastlines, is poised to exploit the potential of this energy. This research work aims at designing a suitable device to extract energy from Malaysian sea current. Malaysia’s ocean has a low current velocity averaging 0.56 m/s, ...
متن کاملComputer Simulation Studies on the Effect Overlap Ratio for Savonius Type Vertical Axis Marine Current Turbine
The Ocean has provided a new avenue in the quest for renewable energy. One potentialsource of energy is marine current, which is harnessed using either vertical or horizontal axis turbines.This paper describes a particular type of vertical axis turbine which is suitable for low current velocityapplications. The simulation of Savonius-type turbine, which hitherto has never been proposed formarin...
متن کاملNumerical Investigation of the Tip Vortex of a Straight-Bladed Vertical Axis Wind Turbine with Double-Blades
Wind velocity distribution and the vortex around the wind turbine present a significant challenge in the development of straight-bladed vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs). This paper is intended to investigate influence of tip vortex on wind turbine wake by Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. In this study, the number of blades is two and the airfoil is a NACA0021 with chord length...
