2. 1. Fault Behavior of Wind Turbines

   Author : Francesco Sulla; Industriell elektroteknik och automation; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wind Turbines; Short-Circuit Currents; Doubly-Fed Induction Generator; Grid Fault Ride-Through; Voltage Support; Weak Grid;

   Abstract : Synchronous generators have always been the dominant generation type in the grid. This fact affected both planning and operation of power systems. With the fast increase of wind power share in the grid in the last decade, the situation is changing. In some countries wind power represents already a consistent amount of the total generation.

4. 2. The Power Qualities of Wind Turbines

   Author : Åke Larsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wind turbines; power quality; frequency variations; flicker; measurements;

   Abstract : The power quality of wind turbines is dealt with in this dissertation. The thesis consists of four parts. The first part describes the electrical systems used in wind turbines. The second part presents the results of measurements of different types of wind turbines connected to different types of grids. READ MORE

5. 3. Vertical Axis Wind Turbines : Electrical System and Experimental Results

   Author : Jon Kjellin; Hans Bernhoff; Mats Leijon; Jonny Hylander; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; VAWT; H-rotor; start-up; all-electric control; Power Coefficient; stall; tip speed ratio; Renewable energy; Measurement systems; PM-generator;

   Abstract : The wind power research at the division of Electricity at Uppsala University is aimed towards increased understanding of vertical axis wind turbines. The considered type of wind turbine is an H-rotor with a directly driven synchronous generator operating at variable speed. READ MORE

6. 4. Vertical Axis Wind Turbines : Tower Dynamics and Noise

   Author : Erik Möllerström; Jonny Hylander; Fredric Ottermo; Göran Sidén; Hans Bernhoff; Mats Åbom; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; VAWT; H-rotor; eigenfrequency; semi-guy-wired tower; noise emission; sound power level;

   Abstract : Vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) have with time been outrivaled by the today common and economically feasible horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs). However, VAWTs have several advantages such as the possibility to put the drive train at ground level, lower noise emissions and better scaling behavior which still make them interesting for research.

7. 5. Noise from wind turbines

   Author : Olivier Fégeant; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; masking; vibration transmission; diffraction; ambient noise; pseudo-noise; cylindrical shell. Perturbation methods; structural mobility; axoustic outdoor measurement; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

   Abstract : A rapid growth of installed wind power capacity is expectedin the next few years. However, the siting of wind turbines ona large scale raises concerns about their environmental impact,notably with respect to noise. READ MORE
