Resumen

Wind power is an established mean of clean energy production and the modern horizontal axis wind turbine has become a common sight. The need for maintenance is high and future wind turbines may need to be improved to enable more remote and offshore locations. Vertical axis wind turbines have possible benefits, such as higher reliability, less noise and lower centre of gravity. This thesis focuses on electromechanical interaction in the straight bladed Darrieus rotor (H-rotor) concept studied at Uppsala University. One of the challenges with vertical axis technology is the oscillating aerodynam

Resumen

A practical Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWTs) based on a Darrieus rotor has been designed and tested and found to be capable of self-starting at wind speeds above 4m/s. The self-start feature has been achieved by replacing the usual symmetrical aerofoil blade in the VAWT rotor and by using a concentric Savonius rotor or semi-cylinder turbine. A computer program was produced to compute the power coefficient versus tip speed ratio characteristics of a selected aerofoil profile employed in a VAWT. The program accounts for chord length, pitch angle, number of blades, and rotor radius at any wind

Resumen

Increasing awareness of the issues of climate change and sustainable energy use has led to growing levels of interest in small-scale, decentralised power generation. Small-scale wind power has seen significant growth in the last ten years, partly due to the political support for renewable energy and the introduction of Feed In Tariffs, which pay home owners for generating their own electricity. Due to their ability to respond quickly to changing wind conditions, small-scale vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) have been proposed as an efficient solution for deployment in built up areas, where t

Resumen

One of the operational problems encountered with vertical axis wind turbines is their low starting torque. A number of analytical methods were investigated to see whether they could predict the starting performance of vertical axis turbines. The chosen methods used " actuator disc theory" for both single and multiple streamtubes. Two different forms of the multiple streamtube model are applied, one using a single actuator disc and the other using two discs in tandem. The computational analysis of all models simulates the blade aerodynamics throughout the full range of incidence from -180° to 1

Resumen

The wind energy conversion system considered in this thesis is based on a vertical axis wind turbine with a cable wound direct drive PM generator. Diode rectifiers are used to connect several such units to a single DC-bus and a single inverter controls the power flow from the DC-bus to a utility grid. This work considers the described system from a generator perspective i.e. the turbine is primarily seen as a torque and the inverter is seen as a controlled load. A 12 kW VAWT prototype with a single turbine has been constructed within the project. The power coefficient of this turbine has been

Resumen

The current generation of wind turbines that are being deployed around the world features, almost exclusively, a three-bladed rotor with a horizontal-axis configuration. In recent years, however, a resurgence of interest in the vertical-axis wind turbine configuration has been prompted by some of its inherent advantages over horizontal-axis rotors, particularly in flow conditions that are typical of the urban environment. The accurate modelling of the aerodynamics of vertical-axis wind turbines poses a significant challenge. The cyclic motion of the turbine induces large variations in the angl

Resumen

Vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) have with time been outrivaled by the today common and economically feasible horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs). However, VAWTs have several advantages such as the possibility to put the drive train at ground level, lower noise emissions and better scaling behavior which still make them interesting for research.

Resumen

Designing a structure which harnesses energy from the wind offshore is a radically different design challenge compared to that which the industry standard three-blade Danish model horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) has evolved to serve. Vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) may prove to be suitable candidates for the offshore sector due to the potential to locate heavy and complex mechanical components near the water surface providing ease of access and a low centre of gravity. Unlike their horizontal-axis counterparts, VAWT designs have not benefited from forty years of intense research and de

Resumen

Vertical-axis wind turbines do not need to be oriented to the wind direction and offer direct rotary output to a ground-level load, making them particularly suitable for water pumping, heating, purification and aeration, as well as stand-alone electricity generation. The use of high-efficiency Darrieus turbines for such applications is virtually prohibited by their inherent inability to self-start. The provision of blade-articulation (variable-pitch blades) has been demonstrated by a number of researchers to make Darrieus turbines self-starting. One aim of this thesis is to evaluate the variou

Resumen

<p> The flow surrounding a scaled model vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) at realistic operating conditions was studied. The model closely matches geometric and dynamic properties—tip-speed ratio and Reynolds number—of a full-size turbine. The flowfield is measured using particle imaging velocimetry (PIV) in the mid-plane upstream, around, and after (up to 4 turbine diameters downstream) the turbine, as well as a vertical plane behind the turbine. Ensemble-averaged results revealed an asymmetric wake behind the turbine, regardless of tip-speed ratio, with a larger velocity deficit

Resumen

In wind turbines, flow pressure variations on the air-structure interface cause aerodynamic forces. Consequently the structure deforms and starts to move. The interaction between aerodynamic forces and structural deformations mainly concerns aeroelasticity. Since these two are coupled, they have to be considered simultaneously in cases which the deformations are not negligible in comparison to the other geometric dimensions. The purpose of this work is to improve the simulation model of a vertical axis wind turbine by modifying the structural model from undamped Euler-Bernoulli beam theory wit

The loads were a variable voltage source and a resistance with the value 2.0 Ω. It was shown that the transient behavior of the system in respect

Resumen

Detta arbete behandlar vindkraft med vertikal axel, att användas utanför ordinarie elnät, främst i byar och småföretag på landsbygden i utvecklingsländer. Två fristående projekt ingår. Det första handlar om konstruktion, med målet att utveckla ett koncept för att hålla kraftverkets vingar. En särskild egenskap är att de ska vara hopdragbara, så svepta arean kan följa rådande vindstyrka. Kraftverket monteras och reses på plats, med hopfällda vingar. Tornet kan fällas för att underlätta underhåll. Infällbara vingar förenklar även om kraftverken ska tas ur drift eller flyttas. Arbetet inleddes me

Resumen

<p>In this study the dynamics of flow over the blades of vertical axis wind turbines was investigated using a simplified periodic motion to uncover the fundamental flow physics and provide insight into the design of more efficient turbines. Time-resolved, two-dimensional velocity measurements were made with particle image velocimetry on a wing undergoing pitching and surging motion to mimic the flow on a turbine blade in a non-rotating frame. Dynamic stall prior to maximum angle of attack and a leading edge vortex development were identified in the phase-averaged flow field and captured by a s

Resumen

The implementation of small vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) in urban environments is being studied by the scientific community to complement large wind farms in wind energy generation. The technology is, however, far from maturity due to the complexity of urban flows and the lack of knowledge in the field. This thesis focuses on turbulence, one of the main characteristics of urban flows, and its influence on VAWT performance. Its objective is to generate turbulent wind conditions inside a wind tunnel and testing a VAWT to determine how turbulence intensity (Iu) and integral length scale (L

Part 1 investigates the aerodynamic characteristics of horizontal-axis wind turbine (HAWT) with different flanged diffusers and blades. Results show that larger power output is obtained when the pitch angle of the blades is fixed at 30°, and the chord length ratio between the blade root and tip is fixed at 0.3. Flanged diffuser diffusion angle of 30° have larger power output. Part 2 investigate a vortical stator assembly (VSA) which was deve
