Solar wind measurements on board several spacecraft were used to study the two-points correlations of the solar wind plasma structures. The factors having the most influence on the correlation level are the density variability and IMF cone angle. The characteristic length of large solar wind structures is estimated at 500–1000 RE . 1. Available Data and Method We compared simultaneous ion flux ...

In this paper I use a mathematical model to simulate the effect of wind and altitude on men's and women's 4400-m race performances. Both wind speed and direction were altered to calculate the effect on the velocity profile and the final time of the sprinter. The simulation shows that for a constant wind velocity, changing the wind direction can produce a large variation in the race time and vel...

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...

Model Predictive and Linear Quadratic Gaussian controllers are designed for a 5MW variable-speed pitchregulated wind turbine for three operating points – below rated wind speed, just above rated wind speed, and above rated wind speed. The controllers are designed based on two different linear dynamic models (at each operating point) of the same wind turbine to study the effect of utilising diff...

Recently, sustainable attention has been drawn to renewable energy sources. Wind energy systems as renewable source of energy have been extensively studied because of its benefits as an environmentally friendly clean energy, inexhaustible, safe and a low-cost for long term. Because of its unpredictable availability, power management control algorithms are essential to extract as much power as p...

This paper presents a control strategy for a grid connected doubly fed induction generator (DFIG)-based wind energy conversion system (WECS).Control strategies for the grid side and rotor side placed in the rotor circuit of the Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) are presented along with the mathematical modeling of the Wind Energy Conversion System. In this control approach, wind generators ...

This paper discusses how wind power uncertainty affects power system adequacy from an operational point of view. A method is presented to produce wind power generation simulated data to feed a Monte Carlo scheme. The Monte Carlo scheme randomly selects forced outage patterns for each conventional generator and wind power simulated patterns in order to evaluate how system adequacy metrics, such ...

The main focus of this study is to design a novel stand alone PV-wind hybrid energy system for remote locations where grid extension is not feasible or is expensive. The hybrid PV-wind stand alone energy system shows higher reliability compared to wind or PV stand alone systems as wind and solar technologies complement each other. A Matlab/Simulink model of an integrated stand alone PV-wind hyb...

in this study, changes in speed and turbulence intensity in the wake of a peugeot model and the drag coefficient changes with increases vehicle speed in unsteady flow measured and evaluated. the blow open circuit wind tunnel to simulate fluid flow is used. disturbances and nominal maximum speed of the device, respectively is, 30 m / s and 0.01%. has been continuously increasing speed by an inve...

investigation and preparing of wind erosion intensity maps are the main objectives of this research. in this research, the working unit map was prepared and then nine effective factors in wind erosion according to irifr.e.a model are determined at each of seven homogeneous units. according to the results, active sand dunes and landuse change showed the highest value with the rate of annual sedi...
