Sensorless small wind turbine with a sliding-mode observer for water heating applications

2015

Water heating applications consume a considerable portion of electricity demand in most of countries. Small wind turbines are one of attractive alternatives for grid electricity based water heating systems. Wind energy can be converted to heat energy in a high efficient manner. However it is essential that wind turbine based water heating systems should be economical and reliable. Maximum power point tracking algorithm of most of available wind turbines requires information from a wind speed sensor and a rotor speed sensor which reduces the reliability of the system. In this paper, the proposed 5 kW wind turbine does not require external wind speed sensors and rotor speed sensors. The syste…
