COMPUTER SIMULATION OF THE FUNCTIONAL SURFACES OF INDIVIDUAL WIND GENERATOR STATIONS OF SMALL AND MEDIUM POWER

Abstract

The use of autonomous wind turbines of small and medium power for the production of electricity is the most effective way of utilizing wind energy and is economically justified for the delivery of electricity to hard-to-reach areas. Such installations are in demand in countries, including Ukraine, where there are many villages, towns, small towns, as well as individual farms. The purpose of this work is to develop a methodology for the location of individual wind energy installations in specific territories, taking into account their natural and climatic conditions, to determine the necessary type and number of them, as well as to develop software for determining the profile of wind generator blades. For this purpose, the authors conducted a pre-project study of the status, quantity and cost of electricity consumption in the village at the moment and analyzed the technical characteristics of existing wind power stations (WES) and the natural conditions for the placement of WES. An algorithm for determining the required number of wind power plants to ensure an uninterrupted supply of electricity in small settlements of Ukraine has been developed, and a methodology for obtaining the cross-section profile of the blade of a wind power plant based on the use of methods has been developed analytical and differential geometry, mathematical analysis, elements of computer modeling, for the development of an algorithm for the rational placement of wind generator installations and the determination of the coordinates of the points of the profile of the cross section of the wind generator blade. The original software was developed using Delphy programming tools, which is adapted to the Autodesk AutoCAD environment for the implementation of the methodology proposed in the work for determining the points of the cross-section profile of the wind generator blade.
