  1. 1. A Generator Perspective on Vertical Axis Wind Turbines

    Author : Fredrik Bülow; Hans Bernhoff; Jens Sørensen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; VAWT; PM generator; Wind power; Stator core loss;

    Abstract : The wind energy conversion system considered in this thesis is based on a vertical axis wind turbine with a cable wound direct drive PM generator. Diode rectifiers are used to connect several such units to a single DC-bus and a single inverter controls the power flow from the DC-bus to a utility grid. READ MORE

  2. 2. Core Loss Prediction in Hydroelectric Generators and Analysis of a Contra-Rotating Machine Topology

    Author : Martin Ranlöf; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : The call for increased accuracy in the process of design and analysis of electrical machines has encouraged the use of numerical methods to calculate the electric and magnetic field distributions within this type of apparatus. The finite element method is a numerical technique that has become specifically widespread and popular, due to the relative swiftness and accuracy with which it is possible to treat complex machine geometries and non-linear material characteristics.

    Abstract : As the major electricity consumer, electrical machines play a key role for global energy savings. Machine manufacturers put considerable efforts into the development of more efficient electrical machines for loss reduction and higher power density achievements. READ MORE

  4. 4. Extreme Load Conditions for Wind Powered Direct Drive PM Generators

    Author : Fredrik Bülow; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Wind energy is a rapidly growing energy source with vast potential. Vertical axis wind turbines could be more cost-effective than the three bladed horizontal axis turbines that dominate today. READ MORE

  5. 5. Magnetic Leakage Fields and End Region Eddy Current Power Losses in Synchronous Generators

    Author : Birger Marcusson; Urban Lundin; Göran Engdahl; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; magnetic leakage fields; leakage flux; eddy currents; losses; synchronous generator; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Abstract : The conversion of mechanical energy to electrical energy is done mainly with synchronous generators. They are used in hydropower generators and nuclear plants that presently account for about 80% of the electric energy production in Sweden. READ MORE
