Harmonic analysis of a wind energy conversion system with small-scale wind turbine

Öz

Small-scale wind turbines, which have nominal power capacity less than 50 kW, are generally used in residential and agricultural applications. These turbines are simple-constructed structures, so they are not fully equipped with power quality controllers as bigger ones. Therefore, wind speed and direction affect output voltage and thus battery charging performance directly. It is necessary to determine the generating characteristics of these types of turbines in detail for appropriate output. According to this necessity, in this study, output voltage of an actual horizontal axis wind turbine is analyzed by using the measured data. Harmonic distortion levels for various frequencies are determined from such values. These results are discussed and possible solutions are offered for a quality energy generation.
