Abstract
This paper addresses the need for the utilization of cost effective, maintenance free electric machines in stand alone wind energy conversion system meant for rural areas. The suitability of switched reluctance machine as generator for stand alone rural wind energy conversion system has been explored through design and analysis. The design procedure, selection of pertinent topology, static and transient magnetic characteristics has been presented. Finite element analysis has been extensively used to refine as well as to analyze the finalized design.
