Since the renewable resources of energy have become extremely important, especially wind energy, scientists have begun to modify the design of the wind turbine components, mainly rotor blades. Aerodynamic design considered a major research field related to power production of a small horizontal wind turbine, especially in low wind speed locations. This study displays an approach to the selectio...

In this research paper, a 10 minute period measured wind speed data at 10 m, 30 m, and 40 m heights are presented for one of the major provinces of Iran. Four stations in Khuzestan- Abadan, Hosseyneh, Mahshahr, and Shushtar- are analyzed to determine the potential of wind power generation in this province. From the primary evaluation and by determining mean wind speed and also the Weibull f...

The use of wind power for energy production, renewable energy is one of the oldest methods for tapping. Socio-economic development and use of renewable energy is an essential component of economic development. Tidal energy, wind energy, etc., such as abundant renewable energy sources and reduce dependence on fossil fuels can help. With increased concern for environment now days led to the resea...

In recent years, there has been a fast growth in wind energy conversion system (WECS). There are two general types of wind turbines in WECS: fixed speed wind turbines and varying speed wind turbines.Permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) is one of the most attractive generators for the varying speed turbine WECS.In this paper, a fuzzy controller is proposed to control the current source ...

Wind power forecast is essential for a wind farm developer for comprehensive assessment of wind potential at a particular site or topographical location. Wind energy potential at any given location is a non –linear function of mean average wind speed, vertical wind profile, energy pattern factor, peak wind speed, prevailing wind direction, lull hours, air density and a few other parameters. Win...

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...

Wind energy has an important part to play as renewable energy resource in a sustainable world. For a reliable integration of wind energy high-dimensional wind time-series have to be analyzed. Fault analysis and prediction are an important aspect in this context. The objective of this work is to show how methods from neural computation can serve as forecasting and monitoring techniques, contribu...

Scarcity in energy sector is a major problem, which can hamper the growing development of a country. Bangladesh is one of the electricity-deprived countries; however, the energy demand of Bangladesh is increasing day by day. Due to the shortage of natural resources and environmental issues, many nations are now moving towards renewable energy. Among various form of renewable energy, wind energy...
