Abstract

The article analyses generators generating efficient electricity at low speed water and wind flows. High rotating speed generators are used in wind farms and micro-hydropower. Reduction gears are used to provide the generators with the required number of rotations. The use of reduction gears in the power system leads to a decrease in the efficiency of the system and additional capital costs. The study analyzed multipolar synchronous generators. Both generators used a permanent magnet to generate electromotive force, and the generators are distinguished by the radial and axial placement of the permanent magnets. In order to analyze the generators, virtual models were created and analyzed in the Ansys Maxwell program. The Ansys Maxwell program is used to analyze electric machines in the electromagnetic field. The use of these programs in determining the optimal size of new devices is of great importance in saving time and improving cost-effectiveness.
