Design and Development of a 1/3 Scale Vertical Axis Wind Turbine for Electrical Power Generation

Abstract

This research describes the electrical power generation in Malaysia by the measurement of wind velocity acting on the wind turbine technology. The primary purpose of the measurement over the 1/3 scaled prototype vertical axis wind turbine for the wind velocity is to predict the performance of full scaled H-type vertical axis wind turbine. The electrical power produced by the wind turbine is influenced by its two major part, wind power and belt power transmission system. The blade and the drag area system are used to determine the powers of the wind that can be converted into electric power as well as the belt power transmission system. In this study both wind power and belt power transmission system has been considered. A set of blade and drag devices have been designed for the 1/3 scaled wind turbine at the Thermal Laboratory of Faculty of Engineering, Universiti Industri Selangor (UNISEL). Test has been carried out on the wind turbine with the different wind velocities of 5.89 m/s, 6.08 m/s and 7.02 m/s. From the experiment, the wind power has been calculated as 132.19 W, 145.40 W and 223.80 W. The maximum wind power is considered in the present study

A supervised machine-learning method for optimizing the automatic transmission system of wind turbines

“…Other than this, the productivity of the VAWT is expanded by the more noteworthy length of the VAWT and the breadth of the turbine edges. Previous studies on VAWT execution concentrated on torque Gavalda et al, 1990;Islam et al, 2008;Mohamed, 2012;Park et al, 2012), control Gavalda et al, 1990;Greenblatt et al, 2012;Hossain et al, 2007;Mohamed, 2012;Park et al, 2012) and rotational speed . A few components impacting the VAWT execution were raised, for example, sharp edge wellbeing, liquid stream around the edges, and the outline of the wind turbine.…”

“…The research carried out by Niranjana [30] found that when the vehicle is traveling at a speed of 90 km/h, the wind turbine is capable of generating 1000 W of power. Altab Hossain et al [31], tested a similar turbine for a wind speed of 90 km/h and obtained power output of 709 W, and at 72 km/h, the output would be equal to 567 W.…”

“…The transmission mechanism that was used in this study was a pulley and belt mechanism. When compared to a gearing system, a previous study has proven that on average the pulley and belt mechanism is more feasible in terms of cost and power production [25].…”
