Design and Fabrication of Magnetically Levitated VAWT
Wind power accounts nearly 8.6% of India''s total installed power generation capacity and generated 28,604 million KWh in the fiscal year 2015-16 which is nearly 2.5% of total electricity
In this design, the wind turbine's rotors and stator are magnetically levitated using permanent magnets, ensuring smooth rotation with minimal friction. Compared to conventional wind turbines, the magnetic levitation VAWT exhibits superior performance due to its lower starting wind speed.
With Maglev wind turbine the power output can be obtained with low wind speed as 1.2-1.5 m/s and up to speed as high as 40 m/s . The massive ordinary wind turbine creates just 5 MW of energy. Whereas one extensive maglev could create 1 GW of power which can supply power to around 7,50,000 homes.
Compared to conventional wind turbines, the magnetic levitation VAWT exhibits superior performance due to its lower starting wind speed. It attains higher rotational speeds, and the time taken for it to stop rotating is longer, making it more suitable for power generation applications.
This indicates the advantageous impact of magnetic levitation in reducing or eliminating frictional losses in turbine rotational energy, leading to an increased voltage generation in the turbine system. The power output of the prototype is well-suited for battery charging applications.
