Effects of Large Energetic Vortices on Axial-Flow Hydrokinetic Turbines
Large scale coherent motions around marine and hydrokinetic (MHK) machines can significantly increase the structural loading and affect the overall performance of the machines. Characterization of the approach turbulence and their impact on the instantaneous response of MHK devices is essential for improving their design and performance. This preliminary study investigates the effect of turbule...
متن کاملIn-Stream Hydrokinetic Turbines
The Electric Power Research Institute conducted a study of Tidal In-Stream Power Production that is one of the best references available and has reports for download. A similar study of River Turbines describes many turbines. The U.S. Department of Energy’s Marine and Hydrokinetic Technology Database provides up-to-date information on marine and hydrokinetic renewable energy, both in the U.S. a...
متن کاملTechno-Economic Analysis of Hydrokinetic Turbines
In small-scale hydropower scheme, the most important component is electro-mechanical equipment. Since cost contribution of this component is high because hydrokinetic projects require negligible civil works. Turbine and alternator contribute a major fraction of the hydrokinetic projects. Thus, there is a requirement to estimates the electromechanical equipment cost for a hydrokinetic hydropower...
متن کاملMaximum Power Point Tracking for Variable-speed Fixed-pitch Small Wind Turbines
Variable-speed, fixed-pitch wind turbines are required to optimize power output performance without the aerodynamic controls. A wind turbine generator system is operated such that the optimum points of wind rotor curve and electrical generator curve coincide. In order to obtain maximum power output of a wind turbine generator system, it is necessary to drive the wind turbine at an optimal rotor...
متن کاملControl Strategies for Variable-speed Fixed-pitch Wind Turbines
This chapter deals with a design of controllers for variable-speed fixed-pitch wind turbines. The chapter begins with an introduction to wind turbine control and the detail of nonlinear models of the wind energy conversion system (WECS). Linearization around a set of equilibrium points is presented to obtain a linear parameter variable model from a nonlinear system. Open-loop characteristics fo...
