Wind is the world’s fastest growing energy source today. During normal operation, the wind generating systems have large fluctuations due to sudden wind speed changes. The Possible solution for this problem is to use hybrid energy storage management. Thus the performance of this system can be improved by using battery as well as super capacitor which is integrated with wind turbine generators. ...

This paper presents the preliminary optimum planning and design of PV-Wind hybrid energy system for a rural area of India. Optimization of any hybrid system is the process of selecting the suitable components and its sizing with proper operation strategy to provide ecofriendly, efficient, reliable and cost effective alternative energy to the society. Hence for design of hybrid system solar radi...

This paper addresses some practical aspects of making Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) more accessible to design engineers and analysts. An interactive parametric design-through-analysis platform is proposed to help design engineers and analysts make more effective use of IGA to improve their product design and performance. We develop several Rhino 3D plug-ins with a user-friendly interface to take ...

The power generation industry is facing challenges from ever-tightening environmental constraints, increased competition and deregulation of the markets. Modelling and simulation of novel power generation cycles is vital in proposing technically and economically feasible solutions which are environmentally friendly. The development of a Virtual Plant Demonstration Model (VPDM) in the UK is addr...

the purpose of this study is to improve the aerodynamic performance of wind turbine blades, using the ball-spine inverse design method. the inverse design goal is to calculate a geometry corresponds to a given pressure distribution on its boundaries. by calculating the difference between the current and target pressure distributions, geometric boundaries are modified so that the pressure differ...

in high-pressure axial turbines, when the fluid mass flow is low, the supersonic blades are being used to obtain a high specific work output. to prevent losses due to low blade aspect ratio, the turbine is used in partial admission conditions. the turbine stator is a group of convergence-divergence nozzles that provides the supersonic flow. the design of these nozzles is important, because ther...

This paper proposes to work on power flow system for a wind turbine comprising a grid connected through Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator and a power converter where it is employed as the bridge between the generator and the grid for megawatt power generation. At this power level, current source converter (CSC) topology possess favourable features such as simple structure grid friendly wav...
