Small Wind Turbine Rotor Design

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper discusses the development procedure of a small direct drive wind turbine. Especially attention to the main rotor and to the wind blade design procedure is dedicated. Decisional technological steps are described, which makes the wind turbine design effective as environmental friendly product. All the design procedures are well documented by the clearly figures and by adequate descriptions as well. The starting conditions at different wind conditions are estimated and the interesting discussion about the necessity of the starting motor is given.
