Which type of generator is used in wind power generation?

Various structures of generators such as permanent magnet synchronous generators (PMSGs) (Bhuiyan and McDonald 2018; Kumar et al. 2020a, b; Liu et al. 2021 ), and doubly-fed induction generators (Djilali et al. 2021; Zhu et al. 2018 ), are the most traditional generators of wind power generation.

Can a ferrite magnet be used as a wind turbine rotor?

Mirnikjoo et al. ( 2020) have proposed a double-sided flux switching permanent magnet generator with a ferrite magnet for using a wind turbine. In this structure, rotors rotate in opposite directions. To achieve the optimum performance of this structure, Taguchi optimization is used.

Can a double rotor AFPM generator be used in wind turbine applications?

A double-rotor AFPM generator for use in wind turbine applications with contra-rotating has been proposed by (Kutt et al. 2020 ). To verify the analytical calculation of the machine dimensions, the finite element method (FEM) was used. Also, the no-load Back-emf calculation and the electromagnetic torque at nominal current are presented.

Do wind turbine rotor blades need a gearbox?

The low rotational speed of the wind turbines rotor blades can be increased through the use of a gearbox which will allow the generator speed to remain more constant, but the downside is that a gearbox will reduce efficiency as extra wind energy is required to drive the gearboxes cogs. Your email address will not be published.

Can a permanent magnet synchronous generator rotate?

Hi Ken, It really depends on the type of permanent magnet synchronous generator you have and the speed at which it needs to rotate.
