Wind catchers  are one of the most prominent masterpieces of Iranian traditional architecture. In arid climate, it can improve thermal comfort through natural ventilation. With the aim of recognizing the impact of this masterpiece on thermal comfort, this research examined the effect of wind on summer ambient temperature by employing PMV. To this end, wind catchers  of Salehi's House was select...

When supervising aircraft, air traffic controllers need to know the current wind magnitude and direction since they impact every flying vessel. The wind may accelerate or slow down an aircraft, depending on its relative direction to the wind. Considering several aircraft flying in the same geographical area, one can observe how the ground speed depends on the direction followed by the aircraft....

Wind turbines reliability is affected by stochastic factors in the turbulent inflow and wind turbine structures. On one hand, the variability in wind dynamics and the inherent stochastic structures result in random loads on wind turbine rotor and tower. On the other hand, the inherent structural uncertainties caused by imperfect control of manufacturing process introduce unpredictable failures ...

Wind Energy is a useful resource for Renewable energy purpose. Wind speed plays a vital role for wind energy calculation of certain location. So, it is very much necessary to know the wind speed data characteristics. In this paper fourier and wavelet transform are applied to study the wind speed data. We have compared wind speed of winter with summer by taking their speed into account using var...

The prediction of wind farm output power is considered as an emphatic way to increase the wind energy capacity and improve the safety and economy of the power system. The wind farm output energy depends upon various factors such as wind speed, temperature, etc. , which is difficult to be described by some mathematical expression. This paper introduces a method of wind energy prediction for a wi...

Utilization ofwind power as one of renewable resources of energy has been growing quickly all over the world in the last decades. Wind power generation is significantly vacillating due to the wind speed alteration. Therefore, assessment of the output power of this type of generators is always associated with some uncertainties. A precise wind power prediction can efficiently uphold transmission...
