Analysis of heat flows in the eddy current wind generator

Abstract

In the paper are presented the results of the analysis of heat flows in the wind generator with permanent magnets and. SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation software was used to determine the circulation and heat transfer and determine the quantitative relations of heat exchange through the thermogenerator at the variation of the heat transfer liquid flow rate from 10 to 3500 l/h. The obtained results will serve for the design of new thermal generators with permanent magnets for domestic hot water preparation systems using wind energy.
