  • Abstract
    This paper deals with design of permanent magnet wind generators for wind energy applications. The finite element method is a numerical method for solving electromagnetic field problems, which are too complex to be solved using analytical techniques, especially those involving non-linear material characteristics. Finite element method is used to accurately predict the electromagnetic design of the designed machine. The details of the permanent magnet generators are also presented.
