T1 - Water Pumping with Wind Power

AU - NREL, null

N2 - Wind turbine technology has been used to pump water since ancient history. Direct mechanically coupled wind turbines are the most common method for pumping water to farm croplands and livstock. Many mroe recent wind turbines are electrically coupled, with a water pump connected to the wind turbine via a motor-generator connection. With electrical coupling, the distance and location of the waterpump is independent of the location of the wind turbine. Therefore, the wind turbine can be located at optimal wind energy site while the water pump is close to the water well or water tank. This document analyzes a water-pumping system consisting of a wind turbine, a permanent magnet sychronous generator, an induction motor, and a centrifugal-type water pump.

Over the past few decades, due to extensive use of fossil energy sources, world is facing global warming and increasing greenhouse effect. Higher need of energy and less accessibility to power supplies requires the use of renewable sources of energy like wind-energy, which is most prominent for suitable applications. In the present work, design and construction of a wind pump that can provide water to rural and remote areas facing electricity scarcity is attempted. Small wind turbines need to be cost effective, affordable, and incur minimum maintenance cost. Perfectly designed wind mill which can be used in optimal working climate could be a dependable energy source and produce socio-economically valuable energy not only in developing countries but also in local applications. The overall design goals of the present work focused on affordability and simplicity of design rather than efficiency.

Most of the rural areas do not have access to potable water. In some regions of the country access potable water is available through use of manual pumping and Diesel engine. The aim of the project is to provide water pumping facility which can be used instead of electrical pump in order to lift water to tanks for irrigation. It is achieved by using windmill water pump which use renewable wind energy, and preserve the environment. An economic comparison is conducted, on the basis of cost analysis, for wind mill and Diesel water pumping systems and the results shows that windmill water pumping systems are more feasible than diesel based systems.

Wind turbines are the most ancient known means of extracting energy from natural sources (wind in this case). It is not possible to create high consistent power from a wind turbine due to changeable weather and wind speed, but a small-scale wind turbine can be used to power tiny appliances at home and in moving vehicles. This research investigates the design features of an innovative small-scale wind turbine intended to supply power. The paper covers design, improvement, power management, and production procedures.

Research on the history of the development of grain milling structures is a priority topic of the Department of Technical Sciences of the Transylvanian Museum Association. Quite a few publications and study volumes contain the results of the research. The present dissertation presents another grinding structure, the windmill, its reconstruction, creating a connection between the theoretical foundations and the practical implementation. Although it was built as a museum and tourist object, it is also a significant work from the point of view of technical history. The Felsőszentiván windmill is powered by a 14-meter-diameter windmill. The mill has a two-stage accelerator gear that increases the low, non-grinding speed of the wind turbine for the rotation typical of grindstone mills. The upper stones of a pair of grindstones rest on a vertical axis, and by raising this the gap between the stones can be adjusted. This determines the particle size of the grind. The windmill consists of t...

The imminent exhaustion of fossil energy sources,spreading global warming,expanding greenhouse effect , higher need of energy , less availability of power supplies motivates us to use renewable source of energy like wind-energy which is most prominent for our suitable application.Small wind turbines need to be cost effective, loyal, affordable minimum maintenance cost for any average person. It produces costlier electricity than medium and large scaled wind mills, specially in areas where availability of wind sites are less and in self-governing applications. However, after perfectly sized and used at optimal working climate, small-scale wind mills could be a dependable energy source and produce socioeconomically valuable energy not only in developing countries but also in local applications. The small-scaled wind mills have different aerodynamic behaviour than their large-scale wind mills. Poor performance of small wind mills is due to laminar separation and in turns on the rotor blades because of low Reynolds number (Re) resulting from low wind speeds and small rotor capacity. Low Reynolds number airfoils permits starting at lower wind velocity , increasing the starting torque and thus improving the overall performance of the turbine .Designing of rotor of windmill will includes optimizing the rotor and its components to achieve maximum power coefficient and efficiency. The pitch twist and allotment of chord length are optimized based on conservation of angular momentum and theory of aerodynamic forces on an airfoil. Blade Element Momentum (BEM) theory is first derived then used to conduct a parametric study that will determine if the optimized values of blade pitch and chord length create the most efficient blade geometry.
