Evaluate the wind energy potential in Yazd
With population growth and progress of human society and human life needs to energy sources and also environmental pollution caused by fossil fuels, many countries are looking to use clean energy sources. Wind energy is one of them. In this paper was to evaluate the potential of wind energy in Yazd city. After review and analysis of meteorological data from 2011 to 2014 by software, the annual ...
متن کاملConstitutive Modeling of Wind Energy Potential of Selected Sites in Nigeria: A Pre-Assessment Model
In this chapter, the authors present the result of a study carried out to develop a pre-assessment model that can be used to carry out a preliminary study on the availability of wind energy resources of a site. 21 years’ (1987 – 2007) monthly average wind speeds for 18 locations in Nigeria were used to create the simple constitutive model. The locations span across the six geopolitical zones of...
متن کاملSaturation wind power potential and its implications for wind energy.
Wind turbines convert kinetic to electrical energy, which returns to the atmosphere as heat to regenerate some potential and kinetic energy. As the number of wind turbines increases over large geographic regions, power extraction first increases linearly, but then converges to a saturation potential not identified previously from physical principles or turbine properties. These saturation poten...
متن کاملCalifornia offshore wind energy potential
This study combines multi-year mesoscale modeling results, validated using offshore buoys with highresolution bathymetry to create a wind energy resource assessment for offshore California (CA). The siting of an offshore wind farm is limited by water depth, with shallow water being generally preferable economically. Acceptable depths for offshore wind farms are divided into three categories: 20...
متن کاملevaluation of the wind power potential and wind characteristics for the generation of energy at yazd synoptic stations
in the current research, wind energy potential at yazd synoptic stations, which contain wind data with 10 years statistic period and beyond, including yazd synoptic station (1976-2006), tabass (1987-2006), robate poshte badam (1992-2006), bafgh (1993-2006) and marvast (1997-2006), has been studied. wind data were obtained from the recorded data at yazd meteorology organization. the data were re...
