Wide-input voltage range

We must return now to the all-important question — when we have a wide-input voltage range, what specific input voltage point represents the worst case for calculating switching losses ... 

Wind speed varies over a wide range of time scales. Turbulent fluctuations in the time range of seconds to minutes are important for the assessment of the power quality and the stability of frequency and voltage in an APS. Hourly and daily variations on the other hand, are decisive for the evaluation of the wind potential in a considered site. For the characterisation of wind potential the primary input consists of time series of wind speed measurements. These measurements are usually average values in time steps of 10 min or 1 h. If the height of the meteorological mast used for the acquisition of measurements is lower than the height of the wind turbine tower then a mathematical formula must be used for the transformation of measurements, due to the wind shear effect (Manwell, 1998). 

An electrolyzer with a capacity up to 500 cu ni. per hour consists of 100 chambers, is 12 m long, 2.6 m wide and 5 m high. At a current load of 7500 A the electrodes operate with a current density of 25 to 30 A/sq. dm. When a 26—27 % solution of KOH is used as electrolyte at a temperature of 75 to 80 °C, the voltage across one compartment will be approximately 2.2 V and across the entire electrolyzer 350 V the power input will then be 2600 kw the power consumption necessary to produce 1 cu. in of hydrogen will range from 5.3 to 5.4 kw-hr. The hydrogen produced is 90.0% pure and the oxygen 99.5— 90.8% pure.
