Wind resource assessment in heterogeneous terrain. [PDF]
Philos Trans A Math Phys Eng Sci, 2017 High-resolution particle image velocimetry data obtained in rough-wall boundary layer experiments are re-analysed to examine the influence of surface roughness heterogeneities on wind resource. Two different types of heterogeneities are examined: (i) surfaces with repeating roughness units of the order of the boundary layer ...

Wind Resource and Wind Power Generation Assessment for Education in Engineering [PDF]
Sustainability, 2021 This paper proposes a practical approach to assess wind energy resource and calculate annual energy production for use on university courses in engineering. To this end, two practical exercises were designed in the open-source software GNU Octave (compatible with MATLAB) using both synthetic and field data.
