in this paper, the 10-minutes period measured wind speed data at different heights (10 m, 30 m, and 40 m) are presented for khvaf, which is one of the major counties with high wind potential in khorasan provinces in iran. to the author’s knowledge, there hasn’t been any assessment works in the mentioned site. from the primary evaluation and by determining mean wind speed and also the weibull fu...

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...

in this paper, in order to increase the efficiency, to reduce the cost and to prevent the failures of wind turbines, which lead to an extensive break down, a robust fault diagnosis system is proposed for v47/660kw wind turbine operated in manjil wind farm, gilan province, iran. according to the acquired data from iran wind turbine industry, common faults of the wind turbine such as sensor fault...

the result of wind dynamic (capacity and potential) is transport of soil or sediment particles and subsequent formative desert landforms based on the severity of erosion or sedimentation. the khartouran region, because of its geology, geomorphology and climatology conditions is a special place in the arid region on the closed basin of dasht-e-kavir. it is evident that the ecosystem balance of t...

sand dunes mobility is one of the serious problems in arid regions. since wind regime is one of the important factors in sand dunes formation, its frequency, direction and magnitude can be effective. amount of wind energy and its directional variability (wind regime) have significant control on the morphology and maintenance of aeolian landforms. by recognizing of morphometric and morphodynamic...

one of the main problems in wind energy conversion system (wecs) is how to achieve maxim­u­m output power in different wind speeds. maximum methods for maximum power point tracking in wind energy conversion syst­e­ms require the knowledge of system characteristics and mechanic sensors. so, using these methods practically will follow with high price and an abundant difficulties. in this paper, n...

Wind environment in the populated built area especially in campus is important. This s tudy tes ted57 crossroad spots over of the whole campus in North China University of Technology (NCUT). The data of wind speed and direction were measured at fixed time and fixed place. The average, maximum values as well as the speed variation scale were calculated. Wind comfort criteria were adopted t...
