Modelling Wind for Wind Farm Layout Optimization Using Joint Distribution of Wind Speed and Wind Direction
Reliable wind modelling is of crucial importance for wind farm development. The common practice of using sector-wise Weibull distributions has been found inappropriate for wind farm layout optimization. In this study, we propose a simple and easily implementable method to construct joint distributions of wind speed and wind direction, which is based on the parameters of sector-wise Weibull dist...
متن کاملWind direction coding in the cockroach escape response: winner does not take all.
Cockroaches respond to the approach of a predator by turning away and then running. Three bilateral pairs of giant interneurons are involved in determining the direction of the sensory stimulus and setting the turn direction. Each of these six interneurons has a different directional response to wind stimuli. We have tested whether these six cells use a winner-take-all mechanism to perform this...
متن کاملImpact of Wind Direction and Speed on Dusty Days
The direction and speed of winds play an important role in the occurrence of pollutions and dust stormas well as location placement for the establishment of industries and the expansion of cities. Yazd is a dry area of Iran, and constantly exposed to the dust particles in the air; and this in terms of human life and health issues are of special importance. In this paper a day when due to the am...

متن کاملDynamic Models for Wind Turbines and Wind Power Plants
Manufacturer-specific models of wind turbines are favored for use in wind power interconnection studies. While they are detailed and accurate, their usages are limited to the terms of the non-disclosure agreement, thus stifling model sharing. The primary objective of the work proposed is to develop universal manufacturer-independent wind power plant models that can be shared, used, and improved...
