This paper introduces a new approach for scheduling security constraint unit commitment (SCUC) including wind farms. Because of uncertainty in wind power production, we tried to develop a new method for incorporating wind power generation in power plant scheduling. For this, wind power generation modeled with unit commitment in a non-linear optimization problem and simulated by submitting diffe...

Fossil Fuels are always considered as environmental pollutants. On the other hand, the political and economic situations highly affect the price of these fuels. Offshore wind and wave, as renewable energy sources, represent the better alternatives for electricity generation. Therefore, it is necessary that wind speeds effectively be estimated due to the absence of field measurements of the wind...

introduction: wind erosion is one of the most important factors in desert environments. prevailing winds can shift sand dunes and affect their accumulation and morphology. also, wind regime determines the direction of sand dune mobility in different ways. therefore, the wind regime, frequency, direction and velocity are supposed to be the most important factors to form the morphology of sand du...

In recent years, the use of offshore wind turbines has been considered on the agenda of the countries which have a significant maritime boundary due to more speed and stability of wind at sea. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of wind turbulence on the aero-hydrodynamic behavior of offshore wind turbines with a monopile platform. Since in the sea, the wind turbine structures ar...

purpose estimating wind chill index as one of the indexes effective in body comfort, specifically for athletes and tourists interested in winter sports. methods meteorology data including temperature and the percentage of relative humidity of 6 synoptic stations of chaharmahal-bakhtiyrai province, iran from 1990 to 2007 were extracted from iranian meteorology site. in order to calculate the val...

The article highlights the results of analysis current state mobile forms greening in industrial urban environment Kryvyi Rih. We surveyed areas general, special and limited use. It was found that most common central parts city with dense buildings are container trees ornamental shrubs. An interesting vertical greeing mixed compositions, including both coniferous deciduous species, planted cont...
