Control Strategy for Wind Turbine Operation under Wind Variations
Abstract: Wind energy is found to be viable energy source out of all nonconventional energy resources. Wind turbine, a major component of wind energy conversion system, is used to capture the kinetic energy associated with the wind for driving the generator. Output of wind turbines varies in accordance with the wind variations. Therefore, in order to control the power output wind turbine employed needs some control during such variations. As observed …

Performance Improvement of Wind Turbines Using Vortex Generators (VGs): A Review
Abstract: In the present scenario, increasing use of fossil fuels for mass energy production leads to increased CO2 emissions and can lead to climatic changes at global level. In order to reduce the emissions, a gradual shift towards renewable sources is going on. In India, 1.6% of total energy is produced by using WTG’s. Major source of energy depends on blade surface and shape. It also depends on air flow pattern. …

Simplified Modelling of Wind and Wave Effects on the Performance of Floating Off-shore Wind Turbines (FOWT)
Abstract: This project continues the development of the wind and wave effects onto the performance of Floating Offshore Wind Turbines (FOWT) initiated in past studies. The previous study characterized the influence of wind-wave misalignment onto the power response of a FOWT with special emphasis on the evolution of power generation with variable angle of wind and wave related to the blade-rotor plane. In this work, the variation of the power generation …

Computational Fluid Dynamics and Composite Material Study on Scoop-Type Savonius Turbine for Train-Based Energy Generation
Abstract: This study investigates the feasibility of integrating a scoop-type savonius vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) on the rooftop of a moving train to generate renewable onboard power. The motivation stems from increasing demands for sustainable energy solutions and reducing reliance on fossil fuels, particularly in transportation. A two-blade savonius turbine, with dimensions of 0.4 m in diameter and 0.5 m in height, was modeled in PTC Creo Parametric 3.0 and analyzed …
