1. Vertical Axis Wind Turbines : Electrical System and Experimental Results
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

3. Experimental Vertical Axis Wind Turbine System
Abstract : Vertical axis wind turbines may have mechanical advantages compared to conventional horizontal axis wind turbines, which make vertical turbines interesting to study. A 12 kW straight-bladed Darrieus turbine has been designed and constructed by the Division of Electricity at Uppsala University. READ MORE

4. Experimental Results of a Load-Controlled Vertical Axis Marine Current Energy Converter
Abstract : This thesis investigates the load control of a marine current energy converter using a vertical axis turbine mounted on a permanent magnet synchronous generator. The purpose of this thesis is to show the work done in the so far relatively uncharted territory of control systems for hydro kinetic energy conversion. READ MORE

5. Wind-turbine wakes - Effects of yaw, shear and turbine interaction
Abstract : The actuator-line method is used together with the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations to investigate the flow development behind wind turbines. Initial investigations focus on providing a thorough validation of the implementation in the spectral-element flow solver Nek5000 against existing numerical and experimental datasets. READ MORE
