There is huge potential for smaller wind turbines to provide clean
energy around the world. Small wind turbines come in a variety of
designs, and have similarities in principles and technology to
small hydrokinetic turbines (SHKTs). SHKTs, in turn, can play an
important role in hydropower. Small wind and hydrokinetic systems
can even work together, for example, to power farms, communities,
campuses, rural as well as remote rural areas, and island regions.
This concise book, written by experts in the field, provides an
in-depth overview of small turbines for wind and hydropower.
Chapters cover resource assessment for wind and water, turbine
technology, design of vertical and horizontal axis turbines, blade
element analysis, vibration-based energy harvesting, very low head
turbines, diffuser augmented wind turbines, and numerous case
studies. Small Wind and Hydrokinetic Turbines is a valuable summary
for researchers involved with small wind turbines and SHKT
development and deployment, both in academia and industry, for
research on powering remote areas, as well as for advanced students
and manufacturers of turbines.
