Theoretical Energy Production Performance Determination in Wind and Photovoltaic Power Systems

摘要

The objective of this study is obtaining a methodology of analysis and determination of real-theoretical performance in power generation applied to photovoltaic systems of rigid and thin film panels and wind turbine systems, applying the theory that feature the systems and using solarimetric and anemometric data from the environment where the systems are installed. Aiming at the determination of theoretical energy production of the systems studied. This methodology basically consists of analyzing three sides: I - To analyze the characteristics of the installation environment from data of environmental variables that help in the calculation of performance; II - Applying technical characteristics of the generation systems with the application of different types of panels, operation and control systems; III - Different topologies of operation that vary according to the implemented system; aiming to determine with greater level of detail how the operation of generation system will be in the short term. Establishing a theoretical procedure to determine the potential used for power generation and analyzing the system behavior in relation to this theoretical potential, taking into account systemic and implementation factors for future comparative analysis between values measured in the project. This project resulted in the theoretical quantitative generator in short term and the performance generator of each system. Based on the analyzing described the photovoltaic systems had performance of 14% monocrystalline and 8% polycrystalline and wind system had around 44%.
