Wind characteristics and wind energy potential in western Nevada

Renewable Energy, 2009
Abstract The wind potential in western Nevada was assessed by using wind, temperature, and pressure data over a period of four and half years from four 50 m tall towers. The seasonal wind patterns for all towers show a maximum during the spring season. Diurnal wind speed patterns for all seasons and months showed a minimum during the late morning and

Wind potential assessment for an efficient wind farm sizing

Wind Engineering, 2017
The effectiveness of autonomous wind plants depends basically on the characterization, sizing, and environmental design and analysis of its renewable energy conversion system. This article presents an assessment on wind potential characterization to be used to compute the size of a wind farm turbine. Different methods are adopted to estimate parameters

Wind energy potential in Syria

Renewable Energy, 2003
Abstract Both wind energy potential and the electricity that could be generated by the wind for the Syrian land have been evaluated. An appropriate computer program was especially prepared and designed to perform the required calculations, mainly the wind energy potential and the generated electricity, using the available meteorological data provided

Wind energy potential of Nigeria

Renewable Energy, 1992
Abstract Wind speed data for 30 locations in Nigeria were analysed. Annual mean wind speeds and power flux densities were determined to vary from 1.5 to 4.1 m/s and 5.7 to 22.5 W/m2, respectively. The mean maximum power extractable from two hypothetical aerogenerators were determined.

Wind energy potential in Tunisia

Renewable Energy, 2008
Abstract The purpose of this paper is to constitute a database for the users of the wind power. It presents the study of 17 synoptic sites distributed on all the territory of Tunisia. From the meteorological data provided by the Meteorology National Institute (INM), two statistical methods (meteorological and Weibull) are presented to evaluate the ...

Wind energy potential in Palestine

Renewable Energy, 1997
Abstract Weibull parameters of the wind speed distribution function were computed for 49 weather stations in Palestine. Wind potentials in kWh/m2 yr were calculated at the above stations, then contours of wind potential were drawn. Electricity from the wind can be generated, in some locations in the West Bank, at a cost of 0.07 $/kWh.

Wind energy potential in Iraq

Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 1988
Abstract Eleven years' wind data for nine locations inside Iraq and six outside in the neighbouring countries were used to calculate the potential of wind energy in Iraq. The nine selected stations were used to draw the regional distribution of mean wind speed in Iraq.

Wind energy potential for Oman

Renewable Energy, 2002
Abstract The wind power potential was summarized using data from thirteen weather stations. The overall long term average wind speed for Oman is a moderate 3.67(s.d.=2.13) m/s yielding a potential power of 30.30  W. Wind speeds at four stations, Thumrait, Sur, Masirah and Marmul, are appreciably higher than the national average and hence these ...
