Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDF- The primary function of a Wind Turbine Generator (WTG) in a wind power system is to generate usable electricity from wind energy.
- The WTG converts the kinetic energy of the wind into mechanical energy by turning the blades of the turbine.
- This mechanical energy is then transformed into electrical energy through the generator within the wind turbine.
- As the blades spin, they drive the generator, producing electricity that can be fed into the electrical grid for distribution.
- The key role of the WTG is to harness the renewable resource of wind and convert it into a sustainable and clean source of electrical power.
