Abstract

The main objectify of this article subject is the study and feasibility of micro wind turbine used for small farms , the electrical power generated from an axial flux permanent magnet generator , when the power scale is in direct correlation with wind velocity. The proposed design shows more economic costs with accepted recovered power , the originality of this proposed generator is due to the flexibility and malleability of stator windings various positions connection which aloud to pass from signal phase to multiphase generator . The mechanical coupling between the generator and wind turbine is direct drive system without mechanical gear, when the rotor is designed to be exciting the stator from hollow disc permanent magnets. However, the generator electromagnetic model study with finite element analyses is carried out in three dimensions thanks to Flux3D accuracy software. The curing out simulation results assenting to forefront a decision to proceed for primary experimental testes on the designed prototype.
