| Summary: | This paper analyzes the model of a cyclone-turbine for a micro-scale wind-power system being motivated by an idea to harvest the abandoned energy from rooftop ventilators. The system under consideration has been equipped with a battery to form a wind-battery power system. Data obtained from a wind site observation have been used to calculate the potentially generated power and efficiency, as well as the mechanical and electrical designs to extract the energy. The design has been explored to obtain the best efficiency of the cyclone-turbine model. The impact of wind-speed variation on the resulted system output has been investigated during the charging process of battery. The conclusion emphasizes the relationship between the output power and the range values of the resulted current and voltage, as well as the optimum wind speed-range of the cyclone-turbine operation. |
