An induction generator has been designed for use in an open centred tidal turbine. Mechanical constraints in the turbine design enforces a large magnetic gap in the generator, which inherently limits the power factor. The large diameter of the machine means it is likely to be constructed out of a number of segments, which can each be modelled independently and approximated to either linear segments...
Vertical axis wind turbines (VAWT) are used in locations where high wind speeds are combined with gusty conditions, giving variations in the direction and speed of the wind. However, optimal power extraction from the gusts is difficult and can result in fluctuating power flow to the grid. Most turbine control algorithms have been developed for steady winds, hence there is a need for a better power...
