The document outlines the units of study in a course on wind energy conversion systems (WECS). Unit I introduces the components, schemes, and theories of WECS. Unit II covers horizontal axis wind turbines, vertical axis wind turbines, rotor selection, design considerations, and power regulation methods. Unit III discusses fixed speed generating systems including constant speed constant frequency systems and generator modeling. Unit IV examines variable speed systems, their power-wind speed characteristics, and modeling of variable speed generators. Unit V addresses stand-alone and grid-connected WECS systems including grid connection issues and machine/grid side controllers.
