This work presents design and analysis of a shrouded small scale wind turbine optimized for extremely low wind speeds. In-house FORTRAN code based on Glauert's method are used for preliminary design. QBlade and CFD are used for iterative optimization. Results show that power output can be increased 1.5-2.5 times by using shroud. Additionally, using shroud and optimizing for low wind speed solves starting problem that small scale wind turbines have considerably and increases sustainability of power production.

Experimental Study on the Effects of Winglets on the Performance of Two Interacting Horizontal Axis Model Wind Turbines
Ostovan, Y.; Uzol, Oğuz (2016-10-07)
The focus of this experimental study is to investigate the effects of winglets on the performance of two interacting similar horizontal axis model wind turbines. For this purpose, a downwind winglet is designed and manufactured to be attached to the blade tips of the upstream turbine. A set of wing extensions with the same length as the winglets is also produced to be compared to the winglets. Power and thrust coefficients of both turbines are measured with winglets as well as with wing extensions attached ...
Ice Accretion Prediction on Wind Turbines and Consequent Power Losses
YIRTICI, ÖZCAN; Tuncer, İsmail Hakkı; Özgen, Serkan (2016-10-07)
Ice accretion on wind turbine blades modifies the sectional profiles and causes alteration in the aerodynamic characteristic of the blades. The objective of this study is to determine performance losses on wind turbines due to the formation of ice in cold climate regions and mountainous areas where wind energy resources are found. In this study, the Blade Element Momentum method is employed together with an ice accretion prediction tool in order to estimate the ice build-up on wind turbine blades and the en...
Strength Analysis of a Composite Turbine Blade Using Puck Failure Criteria
Ozyildiz, M.; Muyan, C.; Çöker, Demirkan (2018-06-22)
The strength analysis of an existing 5-meter composite wind turbine blade using Tsai- Wu and Puck failure criteria is presented. Finite element analysis is performed on the blade under static flap wise loading. ANSYS APDL scripting language is used to implement Puck failure criteria and degradation rules for the progressive failure analysis of the blade. Evaluation and visualization of Tsai-Wu inverse reserve factors and Puck failure exposures in the blade is done with the help of the Ansys ACP/Post module....
Enhancement of image quality by using metamaterial inspired energy harvester
ALKURT, FATİH ÖZKAN; ALTINTAŞ, OLCAY; Ozakturk, Meliksah; KARAASLAN, MUHARREM; AKGÖL, OĞUZHAN; ÜNAL, EMİN; Sabah, Cumali (Elsevier BV, 2020-01-09)
Metamaterial energy harvester based subwavelength imaging structure is presented. Besides, 2x2 array patch antenna is designed to create incident radiated signal towards the proposed harvester structure. Harvested energy is converted to DC voltage signal by using Schottky diodes and each cell is represented by 256 grey levelled pixel value. Therefore, any incident electromagnetic wave placed in the operating frequency range can be monitorized. In the experimental study, experiments are realized with and wit...
Generation of 2-mu J 410-fs pulses from a single-mode chirped-pulse fiber laser operating at 1550 nm
Pavlova, Svitlana; Rezaei, Hossein; Pavlov, Ihor; Kalaycioglu, Hamit; Ilday, Fatih Omer (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2018-10-01)
We report on a simple, robust, femtosecond chirped-pulse-amplification system, based on Er-and Er-Yb-doped fibers, operating at a central wavelength of 1555 nm. The entire system is constructed from commercially available fiber components, except the grating compressor, for easy duplication by other researchers. The laser system produces chirped pulses with up to 4 mu J of pulse energy at 250 kHz. After dechirping, the pulse duration is 410 fs and the pulse energy is reduced to 2 mu J. The repetition rate o...
