Diseño y Construcción de Banco de Pruebas para ensayos de Aerogeneradores de Eje Vertical

Abstract

The design and efficiency of a wind turbine depends mainly on the characteristics of the wind in the area where it is to be installed. If this aspect is not considered, it may only work at certain times of the year or stop working completely. Faced with this problem, the development of a test bench is proposed to be able to test models of low-power wind turbines at different wind conditions. This will allow obtaining and analyzing their operating curve and making the necessary design adjustments to maximize the power extracted from the wind turbine.
