Small-Scale Wind Turbines

2017
This chapter deals with micro and small wind turbines and focuses on small wind turbines in the United Kingdom over the past decade (2005-15), which represents a period of "boom and bust" for building mounted micro-wind turbines in particular. The sector was trying to break out from yacht battery charging to the emerging grid connected micro-generation

Small-scale modular wind turbine

SPIE Proceedings, 2010
This study reports the design, fabrication, and implementation of a horizontal-axis, small-scale modular wind turbine termed as "small-scale wind energy portable turbine (SWEPT)". Portability, efficient operation at low wind speeds, and cost-effectiveness were the primary goals of SWEPT.

Design of Small Wind Turbine

Volume 1: Symposia, Parts A and B, 2008
The project has been completed, and all of the aforementioned objectives have been achieved. An anemometer has been constructed to measure wind speed, and a wind vane has been built to sense wind direction. An LCD module has been acquired and has been programmed to display the wind speed and its direction.

Small wind turbines in grid-interactive microgrids

IECON 2012 - 38th Annual Conference on IEEE Industrial Electronics Society, 2012
This paper is focused on the control of small wind turbines, rated less than 200 kW, in grid-interactive microgrids. The considered system is based on a back-to-back power conversion stage. The management of the active and reactive power exchange in the different operating conditions is the key point to allow a practical integration of wind turbine ...
