Is wind power the answer to our energy supply problems? Is there
enough wind for everyone? Is offshore generation better than
onshore generation? Can a roof-mounted wind turbine generate enough
electricity to supply a typical domestic household?Electricity
Generation Using Wind Power (2nd Edition) answers these pressing
questions through its detailed coverage of the different types of
electrical generator machines used, as well as the power electronic
converter technologies and control principles employed. Also
covered is the integration of wind farms into established
electricity grid systems, plus environmental and economic aspects
of wind generation.Written for technically minded readers,
especially electrical engineers concerned with the possible use of
wind power for generating electricity, it incorporates some global
meteorological and geographical features of wind supply plus a
survey of past and present wind turbines. Included is a technical
assessment of the choice of turbine sites. The principles and
analysis of wind power conversion, transmission and efficiency
evaluation are described.This book includes worked numerical
examples in some chapters, plus end of chapter problems and review
questions, with answers. As a textbook it is pitched at the level
of final year undergraduate engineering study but may also be
useful as a textbook or reference for wider technical studies.
