Abstract. In this study, wind farms were optimized to show the benefit of coupling complete turbine design and layout optimization as well as including two different turbine designs in a fixed 1-to-1 ratio in a single wind farm. For our purposes, the variables in each turbine optimization include hub height, rotor diameter, rated power, tower diameter, tower shell thickness, and implicit blade chord-and-twist distributions. A 32-turbine wind farm and a 60-turbine wind farm were both considered, as well as a variety of turbine spacings and wind shear exponents. Structural constraints as well as turbine costs were considered in the optimization. Results indicate that coupled turbine design and layout optimization is superior to sequentially optimizing turbine design, then turbine layout. Coupled optimization results in an additional 2 %–5 % reduction in the cost of energy compared to optimizing sequentially for wind farms with turbine spacings of 8.5–11 rotor diameters. Smaller wind farms benefit even more from coupled optimization. Furthermore, wind farms with closely spaced wind turbines can greatly benefit from nonuniform turbine design throughout the farm. Some of these wind farms with heterogeneous turbine design have an additional 10 % cost-of-energy reduction compared to wind farms with identical turbines throughout the farm.

Abstract:
In some countries, wind turbines are designed to operate at relatively high speeds to be appropriately efficient, limiting the use of wind turbines in urban areas with low wind speeds. Thus, innovation is needed to enhance the possibility of wind energy use within the range of low speeds. In order to increase the electrical power of the wind turbines, the velocity of the wind blowing on the wind turbine, is the most important factor that has to increase. In this paper it has been recommended that contraction nozzles could be applied between Wind Turbines and wind-way to provide the wind through themselves with more velocity. The main objective of this research is to optimize the nozzle design for vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT). Specifically, this study investigates the effect of wind velocity on different shapes of nozzle to develop the suitable nozzle for the wind turbine. For that purpose, the ideologies of contraction nozzle have been studied. Different nozzle design concepts were developed and the wind speed for each design is simulated.

Abstract:
As the demand for green technology is rising rapidly worldwide, it is important that Malaysian researchers take advantage of Malaysia’s windy climates and areas to initiate more power generation projects using wind. The main objectives of this study are to build a functional wind turbine and to compare the performance of two types of design for wind turbine under different speeds and behaviours of the wind. A three-blade horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) and a Darrieus-type vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) have been designed with CATIA software and constructed using a 3D-printing method. Both wind turbines have undergone series of tests before the voltage and current output from the wind turbines are collected. The result of the test is used to compare the performance of both wind turbines that will imply which design has the best efficiency and performance for Malaysia’s tropical climate. While HAWT can generate higher voltage (up to 8.99 V at one point), it decreases back to 0 V when the wind angle changes. VAWT, however, can generate lower voltage (1.4 V) but changes in the wind angle does not affect its voltage output at all. The analysis has proven that VAWT is significantly more efficient to be built and utilized for Malaysia’s tropical and windy climates. This is also an initiative project to gauge the possibility of building wind turbines, which could be built on the extensive and windy areas surrounding Malaysian airports.

Abstract:
Wind turbine technology has been used to pump water since ancient history. Direct mechanically coupled wind turbines are the most common method for pumping water to croplands and livestock. Many more recent wind turbines are electrically coupled, with the water pump connected to the wind turbine via a motor-generator connection. With electrical coupling, the distance and location of the water pump is independent of the location of the wind turbine. Therefore, the wind turbine can be located at an optimal wind energy site while the water pump is close to the water well or water tank. This paper analyzes a water-pumping system consisting of a wind turbine, a permanent magnet synchronous generator, an induction motor, and a centrifugal-type water pump.

Abstract:
Development of novel offshore wind turbine designs and technologies are necessary to reduce the cost of offshore wind energy since offshore wind turbines need to withstand ice and waves in addition to wind, a markedly different environment from their onshore counterparts. This paper focuses on major design challenges of offshore wind turbines and offers an advanced concept wind turbine that can significantly reduce the cost of offshore wind energy as an alternative to the current popular designs. The design consists of a two-blade, downwind rotor configuration fitted to a fixed bottom or floating foundation. Preliminary results indicate that cost savings of nearly 25% are possible compared with the conventional upwind wind turbine designs.

Abstract:
Abstract Wind energy is a prime source of renewable energy nowadays. Wind energy is converted to electrical energy with the help of wind turbines. There is various kind of wind turbines depending upon their axis and shape. The wind turbine which we have designed is a vertical axis helical wind turbine that is circular. Going from top to bottom, the diameter of the circular blades increases. The diameter at the top is the lowest and at the bottom it is maximum. Such a design is proposed to utilize the maximum wind pressure created by vehicles on road. Positive results have been received by testing the wind turbines on CFD simulation. Three different kinds of wind turbines have been tested under the same conditions on different parameters. Wind turbines having 4 blades have been compared with curved blade wind turbines with the respective amount of blades, and results are drawn.

Abstract:
In the present study, the performance of the Savonius wind turbine in designs with dual turbines rotating opposite to each other was examined. To improve the performance of the Savonius wind turbine in the dual turbine design, a triangular plate was placed in front of the turbines. The effects of the geometric parameters of this triangular plate which was placed on the turbine performance were studied. The numerical analyses performed were confirmed by the experimental data of a previous study in the literature. The performance values of Savonius wind turbines were analyzed by numerical analysis, the accuracy of which was proven by experimental data. ANSYS Fluent, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) program, was used for the performance analysis. In the first stage, the maximum power coefficient (Cp) of the conventional Savonius wind turbine was obtained around 0.17. With the optimum geometric parameter studies, the maximum power coefficient of the Savonius wind turbine in the triangular plate dual turbine design was determined to be around 0.22. Thus, it was found that the power coefficient obtained by a single Savonius wind turbine in a triangular plate dual turbine design was around 30% higher compared to the power coefficient of the conventional Savonius wind turbine.

Abstract This paper proposes a new wind turbine concept suitable for low-speed winds. The design is studied using a combination of wind-tunnel experimentation and aerodynamic theory. After processing the experimental results, and after comparison with theory, the optimal conditions for the operation of the turbine are identified. Experimental and theoretical results suggest that the design offers a realistic alternative to conventional horizontal axis wind turbines. In addition, the proposed turbine has good power efficiency at low wind speeds, and is suitable for deployment in areas not yet favoured by wind farm developers.

Applying the new ideas developed by the present study on the current design of WTP can lead to satisfactory results and give flexibility in terms of producing more electrical power during periods of low/medium wind velocity. The innovative ideas and methods included in the present work reveal the features of the future renewable energy designs that could, in the few coming years, revolutionize the field of wind turbine designs worldwide. Also, increase the capacity factor significantly, since the application of these ideas in areas where wind class II and III blows have proven to be very effective. Especially, when compares the result of new ideas with the current wind turbine designs. Testing the innovative ideas regarding the future wind turbines on a current WTP achieved a good results in increasing electric energy production over the year. For example applies the new ideas on a WTP model Enercon (E-101) will achieve an annual increase around 20% of electric power generation (wind class II, Cp = 36), i.e. when wind speed is ranging from 0-10 m/s (Level C – option 02) the production improved at the highest value, reaching up to +46%. Also, in Level B the generation of electricity witnessed an increase up to 10% when the wind velocity being always between level C with a minimum of 10 meters per second and Level A (Level A is the maximum output value, which is changing from one turbine type to the other).

Abstract:
Structure analyses of a steel tower for Cal Poly's 3 kW small wind turbine is presented. First, some general design aspects of the wind turbine tower are discussed: types, heights, and some other factors that can be considered for the design of wind turbine tower. Then, Cal Poly's wind turbine tower design is presented, highlighting its main design features. Secondly, structure analysis for Cal Poly's wind turbine tower is discussed and presented. The loads that are specific to the wind turbine system and the tower are explained. The loads for the static analysis of the tower were calculated as well. The majority of the structure analysis of the tower was performed using the finite element method (FEM). Using Abaqus, commercial FEM software, both static and dynamic structural analyses were performed. A simplified finite element model that represents the wind turbine tower was created using beam, shell, and inertia elements. An ultimate load condition was applied to check the stress level of the tower in the static analysis. For the dynamic analysis, the frequency extraction was performed in order to obtain the natural frequencies and the mode shapes of the tower. Using the results, the response spectrum analysis and the transient dynamic analysis, which are based on the modal superposition method, were performed in order to see the structure's response for earthquakes that are likely to happen at the wind turbine installation site.

Abstract:
Wind energy, being an indirect form of solar energy would initially seem a very promising form of energy. Unfortunately, it suffers from the problem of dilution. Wind turbine designers naturally try to compensate for this by increasing the size of the rotor to capture more of the kinetic energy of the wind. A major constraint in conventional wind turbine design is the reduction in rotational speed as the size of the rotor is increased. This means expensive gear boxes are unavoidable. The rotor also becomes considerably more complicated in design and heavier as the size increases, to mitigate working stresses. Flow concentrators have been investigated in an attempt to alleviate wind turbine design problems, but flow concentrators usually incur the expense of high structural weight and size. The Helical Vortex Wind Concentrator (HVWC) is a recent addition to the list of flow concentrator types and its economic potential is, as yet unknown. The principle of the HVWC has been demonstrated in a series of wind tunnel tests. The wind tunnel tests involved a direct comparison between the performance of a wind turbine with and without an HVWC attached. During these tests a definite increase in power out was observed when the concentrator was attached to the wind turbine. Previous to these successful wind tunnel tests, other wind tunnel and field tests had been conducted on less successful designs. These other tests were important in the development of the current theory and design or the HVWC. Future research will need to investigate both physical and economic limitations of this type of wind concentrator.

Abstract:
Offshore wind is an attractive source of renewable energy. In order to harvest this abundant energy source wind turbine farms are needed. In order to extend the application of offshore fixed wind turbine (OFWT) in deep water where winds are stronger and steadier, there are research works on fixed wind turbine which is ongoing on larger water depth like 70-100m. The focus in this thesis is analyses to support design of OFWT jacket substructure piled to the seabed, with a particular focus the modeling and ultimate capacity behavior of such facilities subjected to extreme wind and wave forces. During modelling, Genie and USFOS are applied to re-design and modify the finite element model of wind turbine substructure given by Aker Solutions. New design jacket substructures are both for the intermediate water depth 70 meters and 100 meters with the soil and pile modelling based on the Ekofisk data. Based on design load case, both of the static pushover analysis and API design code check is performed on the jacket substructure model to check the ultimate capacity. The pushover analysis is performed through nonlinear finite elemnt code USFOS. The API code check is based on hand calculation.The response of the jacket substructures under design load case is most interested in, which could indicate the critical position on jacekt, furthermore the effect of the direction and size of the wind and wave load. Meanwhile, through comaprission of results, the two methods could confirm each other, which could help to get the deeper understanding of ULS of offshore jacket structure.

Abstract:
This thesis is on the design of an airfoil for a downwind wind turbine rotor with thin flexible wings, for offshore floating conditions. It has been suggested that such a system would to be lighter, simpler and allow for the use of more efficient airfoils. There has been a significant amount of work done at NTNU to develop a “high-lift” airfoil. These are airfoils with very high lift-to-drag ratios. They operate very efficiently at their design angle, but tend to not work well over a range of angles and conditions, and have a sudden and dramatic stall characteristic. In this thesis, it is attempted to pick up the work done with the high-lift profiles at NTNU in the 1980’s, and develop a new profile which has performance in the high-lift range, but with a much smoother stall and more stable characteristics, and to do so for the typical conditions expected for the suggested turbine. A fictitious 5 MW version of the suggested turbine was created and analyzed with the blade element momentum method (BEM). This gave informative results about the conditions the new airfoil must operate in. The high-lift technology and the earlier reports from NTNU were studied. Based on this knowledge and the numerical values from the BEM calculations, a serious of new airfoils were developed. By using the simulation programs Xfoil and Fluent (CFD), it was possible to modify and test a large number of airfoils and find the desired qualities.It was possible to design airfoils that had performance in the high-lift range, while maintaining stable operation and having a soft stall, and also increase the lift coefficient to be able to design for lower angles of attack. The profiles created here appear to be suitable for wind turbines, and provide an impressive increase in performance compared to traditional airfoils.Extra effort was put into making airfoils that were unaffected by roughness, air properties and Reynolds number, as stable performance in varying conditions are necessary for wind turbine blades. This was done by using adverse pressure gradients to control the point of transition.A slow stall was achieved by letting the pressure recovery distribution gradually approach the local ideal Stratford distribution when moving back over the airfoil. This caused the flow separate at the back first, and then the separation would grow gradually forward with increasing angle of attack.The inclusion of a separation ramp also worked very well together with the high-lift design, and allowed for an increased lift coefficient and more stable operation during the region of early stall.The most successful profile created appears to be the AR profile. It combines a diverged Stratford distribution with a separation ramp and a pressure spike at the nose to control transition. It has a wider range, stalls later and softer, and has a much more stable performance with varying conditions compared to the original HOG profile from NTNU. At the design point, the maximum performance is reduced only 5.9 % compared to the HOG. For higher and lower angles of attack, and increased values of roughness and turbulence, the AR has an all round higher performance than the HOG. It appears to be usable for wind turbines, and would increase the maximum airfoil performance by up to 40 % compared to commonly used NACA profiles. More good profiles were made, with varying thickness, stall and performance. Depending on the exact local requirements of an application, this report offers several interesting profiles to choose from. For instance, the D2 profile has round shape and over 16 % thickness, it has an even softer stall than the conventional wind turbine profiles, and would increase the maximum airfoil performance by up to ~34%. This profile would also be usable for upwind turbines.It was found that there is a big potential for manipulating the high-lift technology to give various shapes and performances. The usability of these profiles therefore appears to be wider than previously assumed.

Grandes bague de roulement utilisés dans éolienne sont l'un des éléments de transmission de charge importantes de ces machines tournantes.

Le coût de remplacement de ces paliers est très élevé et conduit aussi à quantité importante de temps d'arrêt. Il est donc important de comprendre certains des principaux problèmes de conception et tribologiques de ces roulements. Quatre points type de roulement de l'anneau de contact de rotation a été considéré comme une base de référence pour cette étude pour démontrer les questions de contact de troncature et d'échec de la cage pour les roulements de hauteur. Un palier de contact à deux points de remplacement est proposé d'éliminer le contact troncature et de réduire la force de la cage accumulation. Les méthodes de conception et d'analyse démontré dans cette étude peuvent être facilement étendus à lacet paliers ainsi que d'autres grands roulements utilisés dans l'industrie
Large slewing ring bearings used in wind turbine are one of the important load transmitting elements of these rotating machines. These bearings operate through complex load and frequency cycles and experience severe tribological challenges. The cost of replacement of these bearings is very high and also leads to significant amount of down-time. It is therefore important to understand some of the major design and tribological issues in these bearings. Four-point contact slewing ring bearing type has been considered as a baseline for this study to demonstrate contact truncation and cage failure issues for pitch bearings. An alternate two-point contact bearing is proposed to eliminate contact truncation and reduce the cage force build-up. The design and analysis methods demonstrated in this study can be easily extended to yaw bearings as well as other large bearings used in the industry

Abstract:
Wind turbines become extremely important worldwide along with the need for clear energy sources. The concept of wind turbines is based on using the wind energy to produce lift that turns into toque, which rotates the wind turbine blades and subsequently produces electric power using a proper generator. However, the wide use of wind turbines and their design and manufacturing process are a challenge. Therefore, much research has been conducted to improve and develop new methods for the design and manufacturing of wind turbines. In this chapter, the author discusses some techniques for wind turbine design and manufacturing, including airfoil appropriate selection, design optimization methods, and manufacturing techniques. One of the manufacturing techniques that are found to be superior is the use of chordwise and spanwise stiffeners to increase the stiffness of the skin of carbon fiber wind turbine blades. Those stiffeners are not bonded externally to the skin; otherwise, they are layers of carbon fibers that are buried inside the skin of the wind turbine blades.

The Chapter discusses the turbine characteristics to design low-power rating generators. The low-power machine results in small wind turbines, hence distribution of power generators have attracted a growing interest from the demand, for remote and rural electrification. In renewable energy generation the design of the generator from the wind turbine is the most challenging part of the design. The generator specifications have been obtained from wind turbine models such as torque, speed and power. Based on these specifications the design of the generator with rating of 1 kW has been achieved. The turbine characteristics have been studied and various parameters of the designed machine are analyzed through analytical model and finite element analysis.

Abstract:
This study presents results obtained for three designs of the Northern Power Systems (NPS) 9.2-meter version of the ERS-100 wind turbine rotor blade. The ERS-100 wind turbine rotor blade was designed and developed by TPI composites. The baseline design uses e-glass unidirectional fibers in combination with ±45-degree and random mat layers for the skin and spar cap. This project involves developing structural finite element models of the baseline design and carbon hybrid designs with twist-bend coupling. All designs were evaluated for a unit load condition and two extreme wind conditions. The unit load condition was used to evaluate the static deflection, twist and twist-coupling parameter. Maximum deflections and strains were determined for the extreme wind conditions. Buckling eigenvalues were determined for a tip load condition. The results indicate that carbon fibers can be used to produce twist-coupled designs with comparable deflections, strains and buckling loads.

Abstract:
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. An H-Bridge circuit was used to drive a gear motor that rotated the nacelle toward the windward direction. Finally, the blade pitch angle was controlled by a swash plate mechanism and servo motors installed on the generator itself. A microcontroller has been programmed to optimally control the servo motors and gear motor based on input from the wind vane and anemometer sensors.
