WIND ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS: STUDENT

QUESTIONS
Efficiency of Wind Turbines
1. Sometimes wind turbines generate more energy than is required. Is
there any efficient way to use this excess energy?
2. Small Wind Turbines are easier to implement than larger turbines,
butare not very efficient. How can we overcome this problem of poor
efficiency to promote more small scale wind power generation?

Future Prospects of Wind Energy


3. In the industrialized modern world, there is an ever-increasing
demand for energy. Will the energy generated from wind turbines
will be sufficient to meet our energy requirements in the future?
4. Is the conventional 3 blade design of wind turbines likely to change
in the near future? Are there any notable unconventional designs
that are gaining popularity?

Software Modelling and Simulation


5. We are aware of software like WindSim, WindFarmer and Wind-ographer. What software is used by the University of Minnesota of
simulation and modelling of wind turbines?
6. Why is modern wind farm modelling software generally based on
CFD? What developments can we expect in simulation and
modelling of Wind turbines in the future?

Wind Energy Conversion Systems (WECS)


7. What are the basic requirements for grid integration of WECS in the
US?
8. We have studied a lot about HAWT. What is the present and future
scope for VAWT as WECS?
