Wind Turbine Power Curves Based on the Weibull Cumulative Distribution Function
applied sciences Article Wind Turbine Power Curves Based on the Weibull Cumulative Distribution Function Neeraj Bokde1,*,† , Andrés Feijóo 2,*,† and Daniel Villanueva 2,† 1 Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology, Nagpur 440010, India 2 Departamento de Enxeñería Eléctrica-Universidade de Vigo, Campus de Lagoas-Marcosende, 36310 Vigo, Spain; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] (N.B.); [email protected] (A.F.); Tel.: +91-90-2841-5974 (N.B.) † These authors contributed equally to this work. Received: 6 September 2018; Accepted: 26 September 2018; Published: 28 September 2018 Abstract: The representation of a wind turbine power curve by means of the cumulative distribution function of a Weibull distribution is investigated in this paper, after having observed the similarity between such a function and real WT power curves. The behavior of wind speed is generally accepted to be described by means of Weibull distributions, and this fact allows researchers to know the frequency of the different wind speeds. However, the proposal of this work consists of using these functions in a different way. The goal is to use Weibull functions for representing wind speed against wind power, and due to this, it must be clear that the interpretation is quite different. This way, the resulting functions cannot be considered as Weibull distributions, but only as Weibull functions used for the modeling of WT power curves. A comparison with simulations carried out by assuming logistic functions as power curves is presented. The reason for using logistic functions for this validation is that they are very good approximations, while the reasons for proposing the use of Weibull functions are that they are continuous, simpler than logistic functions and offer similar results. -
SKI Report 02:18 Nuclear Weapons Research in Sweden Research
SKI’s perspective Background In the year 1998 Sweden, together with the rest of the states in the European Union and Euratom signed the Additional Protocol to the Safeguard Agreement with the International Atomic Energy Agency, IAEA. The Additional Protocol gives the Agency extended complimentary access to areas and buildings and rights to take environmental samples within a state. The process of ratification is going on with the intention that the protocol should be implemented simultaneously in all member states. In ratifying the agreement in May 2000, Sweden changed its Act on Nuclear Activities and passed a new law regarding inspections. The present estimate is that the protocol could be implemented in the beginning of 2003 after ratification in all EU member states. Aim When the Additional Protocol is implemented, Sweden is to be “mapped” by the IAEA, scrutinising all nuclear activities, present as well as future plans. In the light of this, SKI has chosen to go one step further, letting Dr Thomas Jonter of the Department of History at Uppsala University investigate Sweden’s past activities in the area of nuclear weapons research in a political perspective. Dr Jonter has previously studied the Swedish National Defence Research Institute’s (FOA) activities in this area up until 1972. This report deals with the civilian research programme and its links to the military plans to produce nuclear weapons. Since Sweden had plans in the nuclear weapons area it is important to show to the IAEA that all such activities have stopped. This is the main objective with this report. Results Dr Jonter has made a survey of available sources in the archives at Studsvik and FOI, where the records of the AB Atomenergi company are stored. -

Investigation of Different Airfoils on Outer Sections of Large Rotor Blades
School of Innovation, Design and Engineering Bachelor Thesis in Aeronautical Engineering 15 credits, Basic level 300 Investigation of Different Airfoils on Outer Sections of Large Rotor Blades Authors: Torstein Hiorth Soland and Sebastian Thuné Report code: MDH.IDT.FLYG.0254.2012.GN300.15HP.Ae Sammanfattning Vindkraft står för ca 3 % av jordens produktion av elektricitet. I jakten på grönare kraft, så ligger mycket av uppmärksamheten på att få mer elektricitet från vindens kinetiska energi med hjälp av vindturbiner. Vindturbiner har använts för elektricitetsproduktion sedan 1887 och sedan dess så har turbinerna blivit signifikant större och med högre verkningsgrad. Driftsförhållandena förändras avsevärt över en rotors längd. Inre delen är oftast utsatt för mer komplexa driftsförhållanden än den yttre delen. Den yttre delen har emellertid mycket större inverkan på kraft och lastalstring. Här är efterfrågan på god aerodynamisk prestanda mycket stor. Vingprofiler för mitten/yttersektionen har undersökts för att passa till en 7.0 MW rotor med diametern 165 meter. Kriterier för bladprestanda ställdes upp och sensitivitetsanalys gjordes. Med hjälp av programmen XFLR5 (XFoil) och Qblade så sattes ett blad ihop av varierande vingprofiler som sedan testades med bladelement momentum teorin. Huvuduppgiften var att göra en simulering av rotorn med en aero-elastisk kod som gav information beträffande driftsbelastningar på rotorbladet för olika vingprofiler. Dessa resultat validerades i ett professionellt program för aeroelasticitet (Flex5) som simulerar steady state, turbulent och wind shear. De bästa vingprofilerna från denna rapportens profilkatalog är NACA 63-6XX och NACA 64-6XX. Genom att implementera dessa vingprofiler på blad design 2 och 3 så erhölls en mycket hög prestanda jämfört med stora kommersiella HAWT rotorer. -

EUR Kastrup Airport The Middelgrunden Wind Farm is situated a few kilometres away from the centre of Copenhagen. The offshore turbines are connected by cable to the transformer at the Amager power plant 3.5 km away. Kongedybet Hollænderdybet Middelgrunden Saltholm Flak 2 From Idea to Reality The idea of the Middelgrunden wind project was born in a group of visionary people in Copenhagen already in 1993. However it took seven years and a lot of work before the first cooperatively owned offshore wind farm became a reality. Today the 40 MW wind farm with twenty modern 2 MW wind turbines developed by the Middelgrunden Wind Turbine Cooperative and Copenhagen Energy Wind is producing electricity for more than 40,000 households in Copenhagen. In 1996 the local association Copenhagen Environment and Energy Office took the initiative of forming a working group for placing turbines on the Middelgrunden shoal and a proposal with 27 turbines was presented to the public. At that time the Danish Energy Authority had mapped the Middelgrunden shoal as a potential site for wind development, but it was not given high priority by the civil servants and the power utility. -
