Improvement of the Learning of Wind Efficiency by Modeling the Power Coefficient at Technological University of Altamira
Abstract
The present investigation was carried out in the Technological University of Altamira in the Department of Renewable Energies, where the core part and commitment of the teachers is to increase the academic achievement of the students; in this particular case in the field of Wind Energy Conversion Systems and specifically in a fundamental concept of energy efficiency that is the power coefficient in wind turbines. To achieve this objective, several investigations were used to present some power coefficient representation models and present their associated graphs through the use of MATLAB software. Then the experimental and control groups were established and their academic performance was evaluated in terms of understanding the power coefficient concept through the measurement instruments that were established. Finally, the results obtained were analyzed to issue the pertinent conclusions and recommendations. The work was carried out during the period January- April 2018 and is expected to serve as a basis for future research.
