2. 1. Wave Energy Conversion : Linear Synchronous Permanent Magnet Generator

   Author : Oskar Danielsson; Mats Leijon; Göran Engdahl; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Engineering physics; Finite element method; linear synchronous generator; longitudinal end effect; permanent magnet; point absorber; offshore testing; wave power; Teknisk fysik;

   Abstract : This thesis studies the electric aspects of a linear synchronous permanent magnet generator. The generator is designed for use in a wave energy converter, which determines the fundamental requirements of the generator. The electromagnetic properties of the generator are investigated with a finite element based simulation tool. READ MORE

4. 2. Design of Direct-driven Permanent-magnet Generators for Wind Turbines

   Author : Anders Grauers; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; optimization; direct drive; synchronous generator; wind turbine; design; low speed; permanent magnet; frequency converter;

   Abstract : This thesis presents an investigation of how a direct-driven wind turbine generator should be designed and how small and efficient such a generator will be. Advantages and disadvantages of various types of direct-driven wind turbine generators are discussed, and a radial-flux permanent-magnet generator connected to a forced-commutated rectifier is chosen for a detailed theoretical investigation.
