How to make a wind turbine work in low wind? Voltage doubler
Subject: Increasing wind turbine performance without unnecessary costs or generator rewiring. A simple device—a "voltage doubler"—is described, assembled, and tested. It allows for the extraction of electrical current for battery charging at light winds (approximately 2 m/s). An additional feature of the device is its increased power extraction at "operating winds," allowing the electrical system to be configured for OPTIMAL operation. In other words, it allows for OPTIMAL MATCHING of the generator to the load. An efficient calculation of wind turbine power can be seen here: • Мощность ветроустановки. Расчет ветроколеса.
