5. Objectives:
Study of the various types of concentrators
available and the effect of the climatic
conditions on their performance.
Simulation for comparison between the
concentrator proposed by Shikha and
proposed Venturi (AshVer).
Determination of Point of Maximum
Power Tracking in the Venturi (AshVer).
Calculation of Power Output.

9. Expected Outcomes:
It will be possible to harness the wind
energy more efficiently in low wind speed
areas.
Reduction in carbon foot prints.
Stand alone system for un-electrified
villages.
May bring changes in the policies of the
CWET.
Helpful in increasing the power output
beyond the Betz limit in windy regions of
INDIA.
