Abstract :
Optimal design of the direct-driven PM wind generator, coupled with finite element analysis and genetic algorithm, has been performed to maximize the annual energy production over the whole wind speed characterized by the statistical model of wind speed distribution. Particularly, the parallel computing via internet web service has been applied to loose excessive computing times for optimization.
