This work numerically compares the mechanical power performance of four horizontal-axis Small Wind Turbines (SWTs) with different design characteristics. One baseline three-bladed turbine designed for optimal Power Coefficient, two three-bladed turbines deisgned for starting improved, and one...

A method based on PCA-CS algorithm and LeNet-R network is proposed to solve these problems. The PCA-CS algorithm combines the advantages of principal component analysis (PCA) and compressed sensing (CS). Firstly, principal component analysis is adopted to reduce the dimension of...
