WIND ELECTRICITY GENERATION Introduction Windpower technology dates back many centuries. There are historical claims that wind machines which harness the power of the wind date back beyond the time of the ancient Egyptians. Hero of Alexandria used a simple windmill to power an organ whilst the Babylonian emperor‚ Hammurabi‚ used windmills for an ambitious irrigation project as early as the 17th century BC. The Persians built windmills in the 7th century AD for milling and irrigation and rustic

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Rotor dynamics is the study of rotating machines and has a very important part to play throughout the modern industrial world. Rotating machinery is used in many applications such as Turbo machinery‚ Power stations‚ Machine tools‚ Medical equipment‚ etc. Failure of machinery in applications such as aero engines‚ turbo-machines‚ space vehicles‚ etc. creates enormous repair costs and more importunately may put human life in danger. Rotor dynamics is a collective terms for

In the scheme of sand production line for multiple stone factory‚ quarry‚ Shanghai SBM company is deeply aware of the importance of a good sand making machine for the owners.

A well known CFD Code AVL-Fire v7.x and v8.x with its moving mesh capability was used to simulate one rotor side‚ presenting the intake and compression stroke. The CFD-Code is capable of simulating

INVITED PAPER Electrical Machines and Drives for Electric‚ Hybrid‚ and Fuel Cell Vehicles Induction and switched-reluctance machines can provide the needed characteristics‚ but permanent magnet brushless machines offer a higher efficiency and torque density. By Z. Q.

power to the utility grid. For that‚ two pulse width modulated voltage source converters are connected back to back between the rotor terminals and utility grid via common dc link. The grid side converter controls the power flow between the DC bus and the AC side and allows the system to be operated in sub-synchronous and super synchronous mode of operation. The proper rotor excitation is provided by the machine side converter. The complete system is modeled and simulated in the MATLAB Simulink environment

4 Date of Submission: 20th March‚ 2013 1. The rotor shown in Fig.1 has two coils. The rotor is nonmagnetic and and is placed in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude B0 . The coil sides are of radius R and are uniformly spaced around the rotor surface. The first coil carrying a current I1 and second coil carrying a current I2 . Assuming that the rotor is 0.30 m long‚ R=0.13 m‚ and B0 = 0.85 T‚ find the Θ directed torque as a function of rotor position α for (a) I1 =0A and I2 =5A‚ (b)I1 =5A and

HISTROY The evolution of active magnetic bearings may be traced through the patent issued in this field. Earlier patents for magnetic suspensions can be found but are excluded here because they consist of assemblies of permanent magnets of problematic stability per Earns haw’s Theorem. Early active magnetic bearing patents were assigned to Jesse beams at the university of Virginia during World War II and are concerned with ultracentrifuges for purification of the isotopes of various elements for

Wind Energy A turbine is machine that spins arounds catching energy that’s passing by. The huge rotor blades (propellers) on the front of a wind turbine are the "turbine" part. As wind passes by‚ the kinetic energy (energy of movement) it contains makes the blades spin around (usually quite slowly). The blades have a special curved shape so they capture as much energy from the wind as possible. Although we talk about "wind turbines‚" the turbine is only one of the three main
