Wind Turbine Noise Issues

Special Issues on Design Optimization of Wind Turbine Structures

A wind turbine is a device that exploits the wind’s kinetic energy by converting it into useful mechanical energy. It basically consists of rotating aerodynamical surfaces (blades) mounted on a hub/shaft assembly, which transmits the produced mechanical power to the selected energy utilizer (e.g. milling or grinding machine, pump, or generator). A control system is usually provided for adjustin...

Wind Turbine Blade Design

A detailed review of the current state-of-art for wind turbine blade design is presented, including theoretical maximum efficiency, propulsion, practical efficiency, HAWT blade design, and blade loads. The review provides a complete picture of wind turbine blade design and shows the dominance of modern turbines almost exclusive use of horizontal axis rotors. The aerodynamic design principles fo...

Wind Turbine Design

This paper deals with main design of wind turbine concerning with structure of wind turbines, option between vertical and horizontal axis wind turbines to optimising count of rotor blades

Design of Wind Turbine Controllers

Owing to concern over the environment, there is much interest in renewable sources of energy, one of the most promising of which is wind power. Wind power is not yet a mature technology and one of the issues to be resolved is the most effective manner in which to regulate the wind turbines are posed by the different wind turbine configurations. A variety of control design tasks with differing o...
