In this paper, a grid connected hydrokinetic power generation scheme with asynchronous generator coupled to Savonius rotor is presented. The Savonius rotor acts as prime mover to the asynchronous generator and thus, the proposed scheme presents a system with variable input power similar to that of a wind energy conversion system. In order to mitigate the effect of changes in input power to the generator...
In this paper the feasibility of using Savonius rotor for hydropower generation is presented. A detailed investigation for possible generation of single phase power using the same coupled to an asynchronous generator is carried out. The complete system is modeled in MATLAB/Simulink environment, one without using any power converter and the other using an AC-DC-AC converter. The control algorithm of...
The work presented in this paper is aimed at investigating various possible dimensions of Savonius rotor for stable hydro power generation using induction generator. The variations of height and diameter of Savonius rotor when used as hydro turbine impact the performance of the system and require certain velocity of water to produce the desired level of voltage and frequency. AC-DC-AC converter is...
