Abstract :
In this paper, the performances of a new and practical scale wind turbine generating system are discussed. The system was constructed on the basis of a shaft generator system widely used in large ships. This system has many features such as high reliability and output power of high quality. It is shown that electric power with constant frequency and voltage with low distortion can be obtained with this novel system. Furthermore the analytical model for computer simulation is proposed. Good agreement between simulated and experimental results is obtained, confirming the validity of the model.
