Evaluation of the Power Generation from Wind Energy Using Small Wind Turbine in Sudan (Local Model Made)
Abstract: Fossil energy resources become imminent running out and there is a growing demand for energy these reasons prompted the researcher to manufacture a small model of the wind turbine and subjected to practical experiment to generate electricity from wind energy. The wind turbine model putted at top of the building height 15 meter inside the Khartoum city - Sudan, to ensure a high speed wind. the final height of tower and building become 16.75 m and readings was taken over the full six months. The results of the study is founded that 1. the voltage and current which were generated are good and the power also good. 2. from the experiment of this small sample of power generation by wind we can make farmers of power in Sudan, in some places because the wind energy is very good in these 6 months. 3. the average power output is found to be 5.57 watt and the average power input is found to be 92.55 so the efficiency of the system is found to be 4.79?10-2, It's clear that the efficiency is acceptable. 4. All graphs showed a linear relation between wind speed and parameters.
