A LABVIEW BASED ANALYSIS ON THE USE OF WIND TURBINE TREE ON SMALL SCALE

Abstract

Nowadays, conventional energy resources have increasing environmental and economic issues. In this regard, renewable energy resources are needed to cope with these issues. One of them is wind energy resource. Much of the current wind turbine research focuses on large-scale wind turbines. Many efforts are being done to get energy from wind turbine on large scale while ignoring its usage on small scales as in offices or homes. The principle issue confronted by researchers about wind turbine is specific huge area, height of turbine required and maintenance problem. Furthermore, the most undertaking problem is its inability for commercial usage, homes and offices on a small scale. In this paper, LABVIEW demonstrated a wind turbine connected with an induction generator with attributes of wind speed (V-wind), Pitch fill (β), blade speed proportion (λ), performance coefficient turbine (CP), mechanical force output (Pm), the current output and power generator output. It has proved that the efficiency can be maximized while adjusting the various factors. Results demonstrates that the wind turbine tree can be worked at its optimum energy while minimizing the load on the wind turbine for an extensive variety of wind speed. These modifications can be done on one’s turbine naturally and the analysis of wind turbine on small scale by using new technology wind turbine tree.
