t, that the use of wind turbines is beneficial even in those cases when wind turbines operate around the clock. The main task of using wind turbines in rural areas (Nekrasovka village) is fuel economy for energy generation.

Whether it is profitable or not profitable can be determined quite simply by answering the question: "How many years can the book value of a wind turbine (for example, AVE-250) pay off from the cost of the saved fuel?" The standard payback period of the station is 6.7 years. For a year in the village. Nekrasovka consumed 129180 kW * h. 1 kW of energy for enterprises is currently 2.85 rubles. From this, you can find the payback period:

Tkup = P / Pch, Pch = P - W,

where: P is the profit of the enterprise without deducting the costs of purchasing a wind farm, Pch is the net profit of the enterprise, Z is the costs invested in the purchase of a wind farm (700 thousand rubles)

P = 6.7 * 129 180 * 2.85 = 2466692 rubles

PC = 2466692 - 900000 = 1566692 rubles

Total = 2466692/1566692 = 1.6 years

We see that the payback period for investments in the power plant is less than the norm, which is 6.7 years, therefore, the purchase of this wind farm is effective. At the same time, a wind farm has a significant advantage over a CHP plant, due to the fact that capital costs are practically not "deadened", since the wind turbine begins to generate electricity in 1 - 3 weeks after its delivery to the installation site.

Conclusion

In this course project, I examined the design of a windy installation for with. Nekrasovka, in order to supply the village with the necessary energy.

I carried out the calculations:

selection of the required generator

cable selection

calculation of the payback period

blade calculation

selected wind characteristics

In conclusion, I can say that the construction of a wind farm in this area is advisable. Due to the fact that we live in the north of Sakhalin, constant winds prevail here (and wind is an inexhaustible source of energy and during its transformation there are no harmful emissions into environment), and in the considered Okha region, apart from the CHPP, there are no alternative sources of electricity supply, then my project is appropriate for this site.

Low-power wind power plants are of great interest for areas that are not yet electrified enough or are far from industrial centers.
Wind turbines of low power up to 100 W are so simple that they can be easily manufactured on their own. The operation of such units is also simple and does not require fuel costs. The cost of a kilowatt hour of wind power units in areas with an average annual wind speed of more than 5 m-sec turns out to be lower than the tariff of local power plants.
It must be said that the wind regime of the region is the main condition that determines the economic feasibility of operating wind power plants. Therefore, before proceeding to consider the designs of wind power plants and the method of their manufacture, it is necessary to get acquainted with the main characteristics of wind as a source of energy. In addition, in order to understand the peculiarities of a wind turbine that converts wind energy into mechanical work, it is also necessary to get acquainted with at least the elementary foundations of wind turbine aerodynamics. This will help to correctly build the wings of the wind turbine, which are the main part of the wind turbine.

1. WIND
1. The origin of the wind. Wind is the movement of the air surrounding the globe. We have become so accustomed to this phenomenon that we do not even have a question: how and why does the wind arise? However, for a clearer understanding of this force of nature, one should also know the reasons that give rise to it.
If we open a little the door of a warm room located next to a cold room, then now our feet will feel cold, while at the level of the face this sensation will not be. This is due to the fact that warm air, being lighter than cold air, tends to occupy the upper part of the room, and cold air - the lower one. Air from a cold room rushes into a warm room and, as a heavier one, spreads downward, displacing warm air from it, which, in turn, under the influence of a cold one, is forced out of a warm room through the upper part open door... This can be easily verified by bringing a lighted candle to the crack of the slightly open door: first at the bottom, then in the middle, and finally at the top. At the bottom, the flame of a candle will tilt into the warm room, in the middle it will stand vertically, and at the top it will be directed towards the cold room. The deflection of the candle flame indicates the direction of air movement between rooms with different temperatures.
A similar phenomenon occurs with the air of the earth's atmosphere. The sun does not heat the earth in the same way everywhere. At the equator, the sun's rays fall on the earth vertically and heat its surface most strongly, closer to the poles the sun's rays fall obliquely and heat less, and at the poles the sun heats the earth very weakly. According to the heating of the earth's surface, the air located above it heats up. Thus, the air on the surface of the earth has different temperatures, and therefore, different pressures and weights. Atmospheric air rushes from cold spaces to warm ones, that is, from the poles to the equator, displaces heated air, which is directed to the upper layers of the atmosphere. At an altitude of several kilometers, the heated air, divided into two streams, is directed to the poles. As it approaches, it cools down and sinks closer to the surface of the earth. At the poles, it cools completely and heads back towards the equator. This phenomenon occurs constantly, creating a circulation of the atmosphere above the earth's surface.
Constant movement air from the south and north to the equator is called the trade wind. Due to the rotation of the earth from west to east, the trade wind moves to the equator from the north - in the northeast direction, and from the south - in the southeast.
In the northern and southern parts of the world, local winds with a variable direction are observed. These winds are caused by the fact that, as the distance from the tropics to the poles, the alternation of the seasons - winter, spring, summer and autumn, as well as the presence of seas, mountains, etc., make the temperature of the atmospheric air extremely unstable, and therefore the direction and speed movement of air streams.
2. Wind speed and how to measure it. The main quantity that characterizes the strength of the wind is its speed. The magnitude of the wind speed is determined by the distance in meters traveled by it - for 1 sec. For example, if in 20 sec.
the wind passed a distance of 160 m, then its speed v for a given period of time was equal to:
The wind speed is characterized by great variability: it changes not only over a long time, but also over short periods of time (within an hour, a minute, and even a second) by a large amount. FIG. 1 is a curve showing the change in wind speed for 6 minutes. From this curve it can be concluded that the wind moves at a pulsating speed.
Wind speeds observed over short periods of time - from a few seconds to 5 minutes, are called instantaneous
FIG. 3. Anemometer of the Metrpribor plant.
venous or real. The wind speeds obtained as arithmetic mean of instantaneous speeds are called average wind speeds. If we add up the measured wind speeds during the day and divide by the number of measurements, we get the average daily wind speed.
If we add up the average daily wind speeds for the entire month and divide this amount by the number of days of the month, we get the average monthly wind speed. Adding the average monthly speeds and dividing the sum by twelve months, we get the average annual wind speed.
Wind speeds are measured using instruments called anemometers.
The simplest anemometer, which makes it possible to determine the instantaneous velocities of the zetra, and is called the simplest weather vane-anemometer, is shown in Fig. 2, It consists of a metal board swinging about a horizontal axis a, fixed on a vertical post b. On the side of the board, on the same axis a, sector b is fixed, with eight pins. On the b post below the sector, a weather vane d is fixed, which all the time sets the board with a plane to the wind. Under the action of the latter, the board deflects and passes by the pins, each of which indicates a certain wind speed. Stand b with a weather vane d rotates eo to the bushing d, in which 4 long rods are fixed in the horizontal plane, indicating the main cardinal points: north, south, east and west, and between them 4 short ones, pointing to the north-east, north-west, south -east and southwest. Thus, using a weather vane-anemometer, you can simultaneously determine the speed and direction of the wind.
The values ​​of the wind speeds corresponding to each pin of the sector in are given in table. one.

3. Influence of obstacles on wind speed and direction.
The wind blowing past houses, trees, hills and other obstacles turns from a rectilinear motion into a chaotic one. Air jets directly flowing around the edges of obstacles are twisted into vortex rings and carried away in the direction of the air flow. In place of the blown ones, new vortex rings appear, which are carried away again, and so on. It is clear that where vortices are formed, the wind loses its speed and direction.
The vortex movement of the wind, appearing on the edges of the obstacle, gradually fades away behind it and completely stops at a distance of approximately fifteen times the height of the obstacle. In general, vortices are formed due to the friction of moving air against the surface of the earth, buildings, trees, etc.
Therefore, near the surface, the wind speed is less than at altitude.
This must be borne in mind when choosing a place for installing the Electric motor. The wind wheel of the engine should be carried above obstacles where the wind flow is not disturbed by anything. In general, the wind wheel should be carried as high as possible, since with an increase in height, the wind speed increases, and at the same time the power of the wind turbine increases, For example, when the height of the position of the wind wheel is doubled, its power will increase by about one and a half times. However, when choosing a height, it is necessary to take into account the convenience of servicing the wind turbine during operation. The minimum tower height for the wind turbine should be chosen so that the lower end of the wind turbine wing is 1.5 - 2 m higher than the nearest obstacle, as shown in Fig. 4.

4. Repeatability of the wind. Observations show that the wind speed changes all the time, and it is difficult to guess how many hours the wind blows at a given speed during a day or a month. However, we need to know the frequency of the wind, that is, how many hours the wind was at a speed of 3, 4, 5 m / s, etc. during a certain period of time. This will make it possible to determine with what power a wind turbine can work and how many horsepower-hours it will produce in a month or a year. Back in 1895, M.M. Pomortsev established the regularity of recurrence depending on the average annual wind speeds. Based on this pattern, table was compiled. 3 recurrences of different wind speeds depending on the average annual speeds. For example, in areas with an average annual wind speed of 4 m / s the wind was O (calm) 307 hours This number represents the sum of hours of short-term calm and calm, generally observed at different times of the year; a weak wind at a speed of 3 m / s blew 1 445 hours; the wind at a speed of 8 m / s blew for 315 hours. etc.
