Review ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleA Strategic Study on the Environmental Impacts of Wind Turbine Blade Materials, their Improvements, Economics and End-Life-OptionsOjshwi Prakash, Godwin Glivin, N. Kalaiselvan, V. MariappanWind energy is a great alternative to solar energy (During monsoon) along with conventional non-renewable energy sources and has a potential market growing exponentially. Modern 3 Blade HAWTs are most dominant in the market and have high efficiency. Blades are 15 to 20% of the cost of the wind turbine unit and also exposed to the environment. Therefore it is … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 13 Nov 2020 · 8,366 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleDegradation of Power Generation Performance due to Effects of Various Ice Shapes and Accretions on Wind Turbine BladesAditya Bagade, Changki Mo, Abdelhamid MazherIn today’s world, green energy has become a key initiative as an alternative energy resource. Wind turbines are widely used to harvest wind energy in seasonal and cold environments. Although efficient, cold weather conditions negatively affects wind turbine operations due to ice formation. Damage from icing is seen on blade-tips when super-cooled water droplets that form in colder environments rapidly … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 11 Sep 2015 · 7,815 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA New Design of Blade for Small Horizontal-Axis Wind Turbine with Low Wind Speed OperationParamet Pathike, Thanad Katpradit, Pradit Terdtoon, Phrut SakulchangsatjataiIn Thailand, the average wind speed throughout the country is comparatively low for normally-available wind turbine. Designing of a new blade suitable for applications in the average wind speed of 3-7 m sec-1 is, thus, a main objective of this study. High torque has to be obtained properly to generate electricity. In order to design and evaluate performance, our mechanical … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 26 Aug 2013 · 8,063 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSTUDY OF THE LIGHTNING IMPACT ON THE WIND-TURBINEDib Djalel, Guebla Abdallah, Labar HocineGenerally, lightning damage has mainly been to home appliances and telephones, Towers and power transmission and generation equipment mal functions and damage due to strikes on power lines. With the adoption of wind power generation equipment, however, lightning damage is also increasing in this area. Through his dimensional characteristics and the wind power system is more exposed in the nature … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 16 Oct 2014 · 7,045 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Critical Review of Global Wind Power GenerationT. Ahilan, Dr. K.P. Mohammed, Dr. S. ArumughamThis research begins with an overview of wind development and installation-related trends, including trends in capacity growth. Development of wind power has reached a level of maturity, which could be taken upon for further novelty and growth in meeting the future energy needs in much greater proportion. Current research techniques are producing stronger, lighter and more efficient blades for the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,485 accessesView PDF Cite
