Effects of selected atmospheric variables on the power output of a DOE Mod-2 wind turbine

Creator:: Germain, Alan Clifford.
Abstract:: The effects of selected atmospheric variables on the power output of a DOE Mod-2 horizontal-axis wind turbine are studied. Particular attention is focused on unsteady, nonuniform flow conditions within the rotor disc as represented by vertical profiles measured at adjacent meteorological towers. Primary variables are wind speed, wind direction and...

Wind turbulence input model for horizontal axis wind turbines

Creator:: Lin, Shuh-ren
Abstract:: In order to estimate wind turbine residL2;characteristics in the presence of atmospheric turbulence, the important atmospheric sources for the force excitations felt by the wind turbine system must be identified and characterized. The goal of this research is to develop the wind turbulence input model for horizontal axis wind turbines....

Diurnal fluctuation of meteorological variables above sloping terrain

Creator:: Chan, Michael W.
Abstract:: Surface meteorological data collected at a mesonetwork in Colorado during the 1973 National Hail Research Experiment were analyzed to see if a diurnal oscillation of boundary layer wind exists and also to determine the mechanism that drives the wind system. The average temperature, pressure, and wind velocity for a month's...

A study of the variation of the surface roughness lengths at Risø, Denmark

Creator:: Hennessey, Joseph Paul Jr
Abstract:: The Risø data were analyzed for variations in the surface roughness lengths. The method of analysis was tested on the Wangara data and proved satisfactory at this homogeneous site. Annual mean surface roughness lengths were determined for three wind speed categories and three stability categories. The decrease in surface roughness...

An observational study of the wind fields associated with GATE cloud clusters

Creator:: Tollerud, Edward I.
Abstract:: The wind and thermodynamic fields associated with eastern Atlantic cloud clusters are studied using radiosonde data from the Global Atmospheric Research Program Atlantic Tropical Experiment (GATE). These data are from the gridded set of winds prepared by Dr. Katsuyuki Ooyama (AOML-NOAA) and Dr. Jan-Hwa Chu (SSEC, University of Wisconsin, Madison)...

The effect of the land breeze on the mesoscale wind field off the Oregon coast

Creator:: Poole, Stephen Lynn
Abstract:: Two land breeze events occurred off the Oregon coast on the nights of April 19th and 20th, 1973. An array of four moored toroid buoys and one land station recorded the effect of the land breeze event on the surface mesoscale wind and temperature fields. The land breezes may have...

A statistical study of Oregon coastal winds

Creator:: Detweiler, John Henry
Abstract:: The data recorded between March 3, 1969, and October 31, 1969, by a wind gauge installed at the South Jetty, Newport, Oregon, were analyzed. The components of each observation were treated as if they were an independent, normal, bivariate distribution and standard statistical procedures were applied. It was found that...

An examination of the spectrum for coastal winds on the mesoscale

Creator:: Frye, Daniel Evan
Abstract:: Wind speed data were taken at a weather station on the coast and horizontal wind speed energy spectra were computed. The shape of an average spectrum obtained in marine environment is compared with an average land spectrum and the presence of a spectral gap is observed in the shoreline spectrum....
