Domestic Wind Energy Planning for Deprived Communities in the Tropics: A Case Study of Nigeria
Despite the notable inventions in solar energy, it is still too high for standalone users from developing countries. For example, it cost $2200 to provide power for a two-bedroom apartment while the average citizen lives below the country’s poverty line ...

Application of Lidar in Comparison of Wind Speed and Wind Direction Meters in Wind Power Field [PDF]
Wind speed and wind direction indicator in wind turbine is a very important component in the whole power generation system. Inaccurate or incorrect sensor signals will not only make the wind turbine inefficient, but also affect the safe operation of the ...

Comparison of NWP wind speeds and directions to measured wind speeds and directions [PDF]
Numerical Weather Predictions (NWP) of wind speed and direction has been compared to measurements for seven German sites for nuclear power plants, and for Risø, the site of the Danish nuclear research reactors now being decommissioned . For the German sites the data cover approximately three month, the NWP data from Austrian Meteorological and ...

Direct Simulation of Reed Wind Instruments [PDF]
The synthesis of sound based on physical models of wind instruments has traditionally been carried out in a variety of ways. Digital waveguides (Smith 1986; Scavone 1997; van Walstijn and Campbell 2003; van Walstijn 2007) have been extensively explored, especially in the special cases of cylindrical and conical tubes, in which case they yield an ...

Wind Derivatives: Modeling and Pricing [PDF]
Wind is considered to be a free, renewable and environmentally friendly source of energy. However, wind farms are exposed to excessive weather risk since the power production depends on the wind speed, the wind direction and the wind duration.

Effect of Environmental Wind on Performance of a 600MW Direct Air-cooled Unit Based on FLUENT [PDF]
The external flow field of a 600MW air-cooled unit is numerically simulated based on FLUENT. The distribution law of air flow field of air-cooled unit under different wind speed and wind direction conditions is studied.
