Wind Turbine Performance: Review

Abstract

Increased environmental issues have contributed for requesting more energy options that are ecofriendly in its nature. As a clean source of green electricity, wind energy is available in vast amounts in certain parts of the world. This can be used if well harnessed correctly to overcome the difficulties of major strength problems. For places far away from integrated grid, vertical axis wind turbines provide promising alternatives. Local wind patterns, surrounding obstructions, power demand patterns, and number of other variables influence the actual output. The diameter of Rotor, mean. wind. speed, cut.in. speed, cut.out.speed, turbine performance, and Weibull shape parameters are.the.main characteristics of the.windtturbine c. In this article, these characteristics are discussed to understand the main functions of these parameters and how it control to enhnce the output torque.
