The Weibull distribution and wind speed extrapolation methods are powerful mathematical tools for efficiently predicting the frequency distribution of wind speeds at a site. Hourly wind speed and direction data were collected from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) website for the period 2013 to 2023. MATLAB software was used to calculate the distribution parameters using the graphical method and to plot the corresponding curves, while WRPLOTView software was used to construct the wind rose. The average wind speed obtained is 3.33 m/s and can reach up to 5.71 m/s at a height of 100 meters. The wind energy is estimated to be 1315.30 kWh/m2 at a height of 100 meters. The wind rose indicates the prevailing winds (ranging from 3.60 m/s to 5.70 m/s) in the northeast-east direction.展开更多

文摘Power quality is a crucial area of research in contemporary power systems,particularly given the rapid proliferation of intermittent renewable energy sources such as wind power.This study investigated the relationships between power quality indices of system output and PSD by utilizing theories related to spectra,PSD,and random signal power spectra.The relationship was derived,validated through experiments and simulations,and subsequently applied to multi-objective optimization.Various optimization algorithms were compared to achieve optimal system power quality.The findings revealed that the relationships between power quality indices and PSD were influenced by variations in the order of the power spectral estimation model.An increase in the order of the AR model resulted in a 36%improvement in the number of optimal solutions.Regarding optimal solution distribution,NSGA-II demonstrated superior diversity,while MOEA/D exhibited better convergence.However,practical applications showed that while MOEA/D had higher convergence,NSGA-II produced superior optimal solutions,achieving the best power quality indices(THDi at 4.62%,d%at 3.51%,and cosφat 96%).These results suggest that the proposed method holds significant potential for optimizing power quality in practical applications.

文摘Vector winds play a crucial role in weather and climate,as well as the effective utilization of wind energy resources.However,limited research has been conducted on treating the wind field as a vector field in the evaluation of numerical weather prediction models.In this study,the authors treat vector winds as a whole by employing a vector field evaluation method,and evaluate the mesoscale model of the China Meteorological Administration(CMA-MESO)and ECMWF forecast,with reference to ERA5 reanalysis,in terms of multiple aspects of vector winds over eastern China in 2022.The results show that the ECMWF forecast is superior to CMA-MESO in predicting the spatial distribution and intensity of 10-m vector winds.Both models overestimate the wind speed in East China,and CMA-MESO overestimates the wind speed to a greater extent.The forecasting skill of the vector wind field in both models decreases with increasing lead time.The forecasting skill of CMA-MESO fluctuates more and decreases faster than that of the ECMWF forecast.There is a significant negative correlation between the model vector wind forecasting skill and terrain height.This study provides a scientific evaluation of the local application of vector wind forecasts of the CMA-MESO model and ECMWF forecast.

文摘The Michelson Interferometer for Global High-resolution Thermospheric Imaging(MIGHTI)onboard the Ionospheric Connection Explorer(ICON)satellite offers the opportunity to investigate the altitude profile of thermospheric winds.In this study,we used the red-line measurements of MIGHTI to compare with the results estimated by Horizontal Wind Model 14(HWM14).The data selected included both the geomagnetic quiet period(December 2019 to August 2022)and the geomagnetic storm on August 26-28,2021.During the geomagnetic quiet period,the estimations of neutral winds from HWM14 showed relatively good agreement with the observations from ICON.According to the ICON observations,near the equator,zonal winds reverse from westward to eastward at around 06:00 local time(LT)at higher altitudes,and the stronger westward winds appear at later LTs at lower altitudes.At around 16:00 LT,eastward winds at 300 km reverse to westward,and vertical gradients of zonal winds similar to those at sunrise hours can be observed.In the middle latitudes,zonal winds reverse about 2-4 h earlier.Meridional winds vary more significantly than zonal winds with seasonal and latitudinal variations.According to the ICON observations,in the northern low latitudes,vertical reversals of meridional winds are found at 08:00-13:00 LT from 300 to 160 km and at around 18:00 LT from 300 to 200 km during the June solstice.Similar reversals of meridional winds are found at 04:00-07:00 LT from 300 to 160 km and at 22:00-02:00 LT from 270 to 200 km during the December solstice.In the southern low latitudes,meridional wind reversals occur at 08:00-11:00 LT from 200 to 160 km and at 21:00-02:00 LT from 300 to 200 km during the June solstice.During the December solstice,reversals of the meridional wind appear at 20:00-01:00 LT below 200 km and at 06:00-11:00 LT from 300 to 160 km.In the northern middle latitudes,the northward winds are dominant at 08:00-14:00 LT at 230 km during the June solstice.Northward winds persist until 16:00 LT at 160 and 300 km.During the December solstice,the northward winds are dominant from 06:00 to 21:00 LT.The vertical variations in neutral winds during the geomagnetic storm on August 26-28 were analyzed in detail.Both meridional and zonal winds during the active geomagnetic period observed by ICON show distinguishable vertical shear structures at different stages of the storm.On the dayside,during the main phase,the peak velocities of westward winds extend from a higher altitude to a lower altitude,whereas during the recovery phase,the peak velocities of the westward winds extend from lower altitudes to higher altitudes.The velocities of the southward winds are stronger at lower altitudes during the storm.These vertical structures of horizontal winds during the storm could not be reproduced by the HWM14 wind estimations,and the overall response to the storm of the horizontal winds in the low and middle latitudes is underestimated by HWM14.The ICON observations provide a good dataset for improving the HWM wind estimations in the middle and upper atmosphere,especially the vertical variations.

文摘With the development of high-frequency and highvoltagetraction machines(TM)incorporating hairpin windings(HW)and SiC inverters for electric vehicles(EV),both theinterturn voltage stress and temperature within HW are rising,increasing the risk of partial discharge(PD),and presentingsignificant challenges to insulation safety.Therefore,this paperaddresses this issue and proposes potential solutions.Firstly,thepaper examines an 8-pole,48-slot,6-layer HW TM to highlightthe unique characteristics of this winding structure,and explainsthe uneven distribution of interturn voltage stress andtemperature.Subsequently,a high-frequency equivalent circuitmodel of the HW TM prototype is developed.The error ofsimulation and experiment is only 5.7%,which proves theaccuracy of the model.Then,an improved HW scheme isproposed to lower the maximum voltage stress by 29.3%.Furthermore,the temperature distribution of HW TM isanalyzed to facilitate a detailed examination of the impact oftemperature on insulation PD.Finally,the partial dischargeinception voltage(PDIV)of interturn insulation,consideringtemperature effects,is calculated and verified throughexperiment.The paper proposes a reliability-oriented designmethod and process for HW TM.It demonstrates that thereliability-oriented design can achieve PD-free performance inthe design stage of HW.

文摘Thermospheric neutral winds(TNWs)refer to the neutral gases in the thermosphere circulating as tides,which play a crucial role in the dynamics of the thermosphere-ionosphere system(TIS).Global geospace neutral winds,particularly over the magnetic equator,have been a subject of study for several decades.However,despite the known importance of neutral winds,a comprehensive understanding and characterization of the winds is still lacking.Various ground-based and satellite missions have provided valuable information on the contribution of neutral winds to the global atmospheric dynamics.However,efforts in the global monitoring of neutral winds are still lacking,and the drivers behind the behavior of TNWs as well as their influence on the TIS remain incomplete.To address these knowledge gaps in the global circulation of TNWs,it is crucial to develop a deep understanding of the neutral wind characteristics over different regions.The low-latitude equatorial region in particular has been observed to exert complex influences on TNWs because of the unique effects of the Earth’s magnetic field at the dip equator.Studying neutral winds over this region will provide valuable insights into the unique dynamics and processes that occur in this region,thereby enhancing our understanding of their role in the overall dynamics of the TIS.Additionally,through empirical observations,an improved ability to accurately model and predict the behavior of this region can be achieved.This review article addresses challenges in understanding equatorial winds by reviewing historical measurements,current missions,and the interactions of ionospheric and thermospheric phenomena,emphasizing the need for comprehensive measurements to improve global atmospheric dynamics and weather forecasting.
文摘To improve the vertical axis wind turbine(VAWT)design,the angle of attack(AOA)and airfoil data must be treated correctly.The present paper develops a method for determining AOA on a VAWT based on computational fluid dynamics(CFD)analysis.First,a CFD analysis of a two-bladed VAWT equipped with a NACA 0012 airfoil is conducted.The thrust and power coefficients are validated through experiments.Second,the blade force and velocity data at monitoring points are collected.The AOA at different azimuth angles is determined by removing the blade self-induction at the monitoring point.Then,the lift and drag coefficients as a function of AOA are extracted.Results show that this method is independent of the monitoring points selection located at certain distance to the blades and the extracted dynamic stall hysteresis is more precise than the one with the“usual”method without considering the self-induction from bound vortices.

文摘The meteor radar can detect the zenith angle,azimuth,radial velocity,and altitude of meteor trails so that one can invert the wind profiles in the mesosphere and low thermosphere(MLT)region,based on the Interferometric and Doppler techniques.In this paper,the horizontal wind field,gravity wave(GW)disturbance variance,and GW fluxes are analyzed through the meteor radar observation from 2012−2022,at Mohe(53.5°N,122.4°E)and Zuoling(30.5°N,114.6°E)stations of the(Chinese)Meridian Project.The Lomb−Scargle periodogram method has been utilized to analyze the periodic variations for time series with observational data gaps.The results show that the zonal winds at both stations are eastward dominated,while the meridional winds are southward dominated.The variance of GW disturbances in the zonal and meridional directions increases gradually with height,and there is a strong pattern of annual variation.The zonal momentum flux of GW changes little with height,showing weak annual variation.The meridional GW flux varies gradually from northward to southward with height,and the annual periodicity is stronger.For both stations,the maximum values of zonal and meridional wind occur close to the peak heights of GW flux,with opposite directions.This observational evidence is consistent with the filtering theory.The horizontal wind velocity,GW flux,and disturbance variance of the GW at Mohe are overall smaller than those at Zuoling,indicating weaker activities in the MLT at Mohe.The power spectral density(PSD)calculated by the Lomb−Scargle periodogram shows that there are 12-month period and 6-month period in horizontal wind field,GW disturbance variance and GW flux at both stations,and especially there is also a 4-month cycle in the disturbance variance.The PSD of the 12-month and 6-month cycles exhibits maximum values below 88 km and above 94 km.

文摘To enhance the prediction accuracy of unsteady wakes behind wind turbines,a novel reduced-order model is proposed by integrating a multifunctional recurrent fuzzy neural network(MFRFNN)and proper orthogonal decom-position(POD).First,POD is employed to reduce the di-mensionality of the wind field data,extracting spatiotempo-rally correlated modal coefficients and modes.These reduced-order variables can effectively capture the essential features of unsteady wake behaviors.Next,MFRFNN is utilized to predict the time series of modal coefficients.Fi-nally,by combining the predicted modal coefficients with their corresponding modes,a flow field is reconstructed,al-lowing accurate prediction of unsteady wake dynamics.The predicted wake data exhibit high consistency with large eddy simulation results in both the near-and far-wake re-gions and outperform existing data-driven methods.This ap-proach offers significant potential for optimizing wind farm design and provides a new solution for the precise prediction of wind turbine wake behavior.
文摘Understanding the wind power potential of a site is essential for designing an optimal wind power conditioning system. The Weibull distribution and wind speed extrapolation methods are powerful mathematical tools for efficiently predicting the frequency distribution of wind speeds at a site. Hourly wind speed and direction data were collected from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) website for the period 2013 to 2023. MATLAB software was used to calculate the distribution parameters using the graphical method and to plot the corresponding curves, while WRPLOTView software was used to construct the wind rose. The average wind speed obtained is 3.33 m/s and can reach up to 5.71 m/s at a height of 100 meters. The wind energy is estimated to be 1315.30 kWh/m2 at a height of 100 meters. The wind rose indicates the prevailing winds (ranging from 3.60 m/s to 5.70 m/s) in the northeast-east direction.

文摘This paper addresses the complexity of wake control in large-scale wind farms by proposing a partitioning control algorithm utilizing the FLORIDyn(FLOW Redirection and Induction Dynamics)dynamic wake model.First,the impact of wakes on turbine effective wind speed is analyzed,leading to a quantitative method for assessing wake interactions.Based on these interactions,a partitioning method divides the wind farm into smaller,computationally manageable zones.Subsequently,a heuristic control algorithm is developed for yaw optimization within each partition,reducing the overall computational burden associated with multi-turbine optimization.The algorithm’s effectiveness is evaluated through case studies on 11-turbine and 28-turbine wind farms,demonstrating power generation increases of 9.78%and 1.78%,respectively,compared to baseline operation.The primary innovation lies in coupling the higher-fidelity dynamic FLORIDyn wake model with a graph-based partitioning strategy and a computationally efficient heuristic optimization,enabling scalable and accurate yaw control for large wind farms,overcoming limitations associated with simplified models or centralized optimization approaches.

文摘A joint statistical model of wind speed and wind shear is critical for height-dependent wind resource characteristic analysis.However,given the different atmospheric conditions that may be involved,the statistical distribution of the two variables may show multimodal characteristics.In this work,a finite mixture bivariate statistical model was designed to describe the statistical properties,which is composed of several components,each with a Weibull distribution and a normal distribution for wind speed and wind shear,respectively,with a Gaussian copula to describe the dependency structure between the two variables.To confirm the developed model,reanalysis data from six positions in the coastal sea areas of China were used.Our results disclosed that the developed joint statistical model can accurately capture the different multimodal structures presented in all the bivariate samples under mixed atmospheric conditions,giving acceptable predictions of the joint probability distributions.Proper consideration of wind shear coefficient variation is crucial in estimating height-dependent wind resource characteristics.Importantly,unlike traditional methods that are limited to specific hub heights,the model developed here can estimate wind energy potential across different hub heights,enhancing the economic viability assessment of wind power projects.

文摘Anomaly detection in wind turbines involves emphasizing its ability to improve operational efficiency,reduce maintenance costs,extend their lifespan,and enhance reliability in the wind energy sector.This is particularly necessary in offshore wind,currently one of the most critical assets for achieving sustainable energy generation goals,due to the harsh marine environment and the difficulty of maintenance tasks.To address this problem,this work proposes a data-driven methodology for detecting power generation anomalies in offshore wind turbines,using normalized and linearized operational data.The proposed framework transforms heterogeneous wind speed and power measurements into a unified scale,enabling the development of a new wind power index(WPi)that quantifies deviations from expected performance.Additionally,spatial and temporal coherence analyses of turbines within a wind farm ensure the validity of these normalized measurements across different wind turbine models and operating conditions.Furthermore,a Support Vector Machine(SVM)refines the classification process,effectively distinguishing measurement errors from actual power generation failures.Validation of this strategy using real-world data from the Alpha Ventus wind farm demonstrates that the proposed approach not only improves predictive maintenance but also optimizes energy production,highlighting its potential for broad application in offshore wind installations.
