This paper discusses the electromagnetic and mechanical design considerations to improve the design accuracy and power to mass ratio of multi-stack axial flux permanent magnet synchronous generator (AFPMSG). Design accuracy of multi-stack AFPMSG for direct drive wind turbine application is improved by considering magnetic flux leakages and fringing effect. FEM structural analysis is utilized to increase power to mass ratio of three-stack AFPMSG by reducing the rotor yoke thickness considering magnetic and centrifugal forces and Von Mises stress distribution.

This study investigates the multi-objective fuzzy optimization of crowbar resistance for the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) low-voltage ride-through (LVRT). By integrating the crowbar resistance of the crowbar circuit as a decision variable, a multi-objective model for crowbar resistance value optimization has been established to minimize rotor overcurrent and to simultaneously reduce the DFIG reactive power absorbed from the grid during the process of LVRT. A multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) is applied to solve this optimization problem. In the proposed GA, the value of the crowbar resistance is represented by floating-point numbers in the GA population. The MOGA emphasizes the non-dominated solutions and simultaneously maintains diversity in the non-dominated solutions. A fuzzy-set-theory-based is employed to obtain the best solution. The proposed approach has been evaluated on a 3 MW DFIG LVRT. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed approach for solving the crowbar resistance multi-objective optimization problem in the DFIG LVRT.

최근 화석연료의 사용으로 인한 연료고갈 및 환경문제가 대두되고 있으며 이를 해결하기 위한 대체에너지 개발이 시급한 실정이다. 풍력에너지는 대체에너지 중 지속적으로 무제한 사용할 수 있고 공해물질 배출이 없는 청정에너지로 각광받고 있다. 풍력발전은 바람에너지가 로터 블레이드를 통해서 운동에너지로 변환되고 다시 발전기를 통해서 전기에너지를 발생시키는 에너지 변환기술이며, 풍력발전기의 중요부품인 블레이드의 설계 및 제작은 매우 중요한 요소이지만, 우리나라는 이에 대한 기초자료 및 핵심기술 등이 부족하여 아직도 중요부품들을 외국에서 수입하여 사용하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 저 풍속에서도 발전 가능한 다층형 구조의 블레이드를 소형풍력발전기에 적용하여 풍속 및 블레이드 개수에 따른 발전기의 출력특성을 분석하였다. 연구결과, 최대풍속 8m/s일 때 블레이드 3개를 적용하면 블레이드를 1개 및 2개를 적용했을 때보다 발전기 출력전압은 33% 및 18%로 증가되었고, 발전기 출력전류는 33% 및 15%로 증가되었으며 발전기 RPM은 23% 및 13%로 증가되었다. 본 연구에서다층형 구조의 블레이드를 소형풍력발전기에 적용한 결과 발전기의 출력특성이 향상되었고 저 풍속에서도 전기에너지의 수집이 가능함을 확인하였다.

The evaluation of a zonal RANS-LES approach is documented for the prediction of broadband noise generated by the flow past unmodified and serrated airfoil trailing edges at a high Reynolds number. A multi-domain decomposition is considered, where the acoustic sources are resolved with a LES sub-domain embedded in the RANS domain. A stochastic vortex method is used to generate synthetic turbulent perturbations at the RANS-LES interface. The simulations are performed with a general-purpose unstructured control-volume code FLUENT. The far-field noise is calculated using the aeroacoustic analogy of Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings. The results of the simulation are validated through the full-scaled wind turbine acoustic measurements. It is found that the present approach is adequate for predicting noise radiation of serrated trailing edge flow for low noise rotor system.
