Power reduction and resonance avoidance of Maglev vertical axis wind turbines using attractive type passive magnetic bearings

In this paper, a new model of magnetically levitated (Maglev) vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) is presented for power generation purposes. The rotor is suspended by two permanent magnet attractive type passive magnetic bearings and one control coil; it is possible to rotate the rotor without any...
