this paper is an attempt to numerical modeling and experimental study of air flow in the yazdi wind-towers. wind towers has been known as one of the most effective climatic elements in iranian traditional architecture. this paper is an attempt to evaluating yazdi wind-tower to discussion the two main questions: 1. what is the role of orientation of wind-towers span, regarding to climate and hei...

Local renewable resources such as wind and solar are often available in remote locations. Wind farms consist of many individual wind turbines which are connected to the electric power transm­iss­i­o­n ne­tw­o­r­k­. A wind farm can use the wind resources from a certain area efficiently. Double-fed induction generator (DFIG) is a gene­rating principle widely used in wind turbine (WT). DFIG are ab...

Since the renewable resources of energy have become extremely important, especially wind energy, scientists have begun to modify the design of the wind turbine components, mainly rotor blades. Aerodynamic design considered a major research field related to power production of a small horizontal wind turbine, especially in low wind speed locations. This study displays an approach to the selectio...

Wind energy conversion systems are very different in nature from conventional generators. Therefore dynamic studies must be addressed in order to integrate wind power into the power system. Angular stability assessment of wind power generator is one of main issues in power system security and operation. The angular stability for the wind power generator is determined by its corresponding Critic...

this article is a comparative evaluation of airflow in two kinds of yazdi and kermani wind-towers. in the late decades of twenty century regarding to high population growth rate and energy crisis, vernacular architecture and its passive methods for gaining thermal comfort, has been strongly focused. moreover, a huge scientific movement setup for researches deep in exploring passive cooling and ...

Among all the renewable resources, wind and solar are the most popular resources due to its ease of availability and its ease conversion into electricity. Each renewable resource uses DC/DC boost converter separately with MPPT control to generate power. To increase the efficiency of photovoltaic (PV) system and wind energy system, the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technology is employed. ...

Wind Energy Conversion Systems are the most striking renewable energy resources available to generate the electricity. Doubly-fed Induction Generator (DFIG) based wind turbine with variable speed is the most common wind turbine in the growing wind market. In any WECS, power flow must be maintained at all instant irrespective of any fault in the system. This paper deals with fault tolerant contr...
