Vertical Axis Wind Turbine Power Generation and It's Generator Losses
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: MECHANICAL ENGINEERING
Abstract
Wind energy is one of the major forms of renewable energy resources found abundantly which widely used as an alternative energy. Due to lack of fossils fuels, world is looking on renewable energy sources like solar, wind, tidal etc., coming to wind the machine used to convert the wind energy into electrical energy is wind turbine. In this, we see the types of wind turbine performance parameters of VAWT and their influence on VAWT, electricity generation by VAWT, losses and costs associated with different speeds and torques on VAWT. The generator of a VAWT is consist of different losses where we can reduce the losses with different material in which we can adjusts the cost of VAWT.
Keywords
