Webcam on our small 500 watt turbine

[Cor van Houtum]

Hello all,
We have put a webcam on our 500 watt hummer windmill
http://62.131.38.139:81/
login with "gast" and password also "gast"

The original windgenerator is producing about 30 volts
with a step-up transformer we have a 4:1 situation
so it will deliver 120 volts
after this we put this voltage in a rectifier and then to a Soladin 500 windinverter
The output is about 300 watt back to the net.
the highest we have seen till now is 420 watt.
we think this is not a bad result for a 500 watt turbine.

Kind regards

What wind turbine Cor? All I see is an empty tower! Someone must have run off with your turbine. Hope you caught them on camera.... :eek:

Just kidding. ;)
Nice work!

sorry the camera fell of the stand
now it must work again

Next week we are going to put 5x a little turbine in series.
we want to try and see off this works
every turbine has 30 volts AC
we want to rectifie this on every turbine and then put the output in series with the next turbine
in total we expect to get 150 volts dc and put this in to a aurora inverter

when this works we want to expand the system to 10X a 500 watt turbine
and put this into a PVI 6000 aurora

Has any one try'd this allready ?

we changed our ip adress at work
so the cam is moved to
