When affordability increases their requirement of power increases, this happens when increased per capita consumption.

A high efficiency Switched Reluctance Generator (SRG) based high frequency switching scheme to enhance the output for grid connectivity is designed, fabricated and evaluated. This proposed method generates the output for the low wind speed. It provides output at low speed because of multi-level DC-DC converter and storage system. It is an efficient solution for low wind power generation. The real time readings and results are discussed.展开更多

Firstly, the analytical expressions of the air-gap magnetic field are derived from the perspective of DC-and AC-components, respectively. Meanwhile, different slot/pole combinations and winding arrangements are considered. Secondly, the torque productions are analyzed and evaluated with emphasis on the interaction between the DCand AC-components of air-gap fields. Thirdly, the 12-slot/8-pole and 12-slot/10-pole SRMs are established and studied by using the finite-element method. The effects of slot/pole combination and winding arrangement on the average torque production are clarified. Then, two new designs to improve the average torque are proposed. Finally, the prototype of the 12-slot/10-pole SRM is manufactured, and the experiments are carried out for validation.展开更多
