Wind power is generating a lot of interest in many countries as a way to produce sustainable and low-cost electrical power. Since the power in the wind is known to be proportional to the cubic power of the wind velocity approaching the wind turbine, this means that any slight increase in wind speed can lead to a substantial increment in the energy output. Power augmentation device is an interesting...
Sustaining outdoor life in cities is decreasing because of the recent rapid urbanisation without considering climate-responsive urban design concepts. Such inadvertent climatic modifications at the indoor level have imposed considerable demand on the urban energy resources. It is important to provide comfortable ambient climate at open urban squares. Researchers need to predict the comfortable conditions...
District heating systems operation can be improved by control strategies. One of the options is the introduction of predictive control model. Predictive models of heat load can be applied to improve district heating system performances. In this article, short-term multistep-ahead predictive models of heat load for consumers connected to district heating system were developed using SVMs (Support Vector...
Wind energy poses challenges such as the reduction of the wind speed due to wake effect by other turbines. To increase wind farm efficiency, analyzing the parameters which have influence on the wake effect is very important. In this study clustering methods were applied on the wake effects in wind warm to separate district levels of the wake effects. To capture the patterns of the wake effects the...
Wind power is generating interest amongst many countries to produce sustainable electrical power. It is well known that the main drawback of wind power is the inherent variable behavior of wind speed. Significant research has been carried out to improve the performance of the wind turbines and establish the power system stability. As power output is proportional to the cubic power of the incident...
District heating systems are important utility systems. If these systems are properly managed, they can ensure economic and environmentally friendly provision of heat to connected customers. Potentials for further improvement of district heating systems' operation lie in the improvement of current control strategies. One of the options is the introduction of model predictive control. Multi-step ahead...
Precise predictions of wind power density play a substantial role in determining the viability of wind energy harnessing. In fact, reliable prediction is particularly useful for operators and investors to offer a secure situation with minimal economic risks. In this paper, a new model based upon ELM (extreme learning machine) is presented to estimate the wind power density. Generally, the two-parameter...
District heating systems can play a significant role in achieving stringent targets for CO 2 emissions with concurrent increase in fuel efficiency. However, there are numerous possibilities for future improvement of their operation. One of the potential domains is control, where short-term prediction of heat load can play a significant role. With reliable prediction of consumers' heat consumption,...
Dissection of the power output in a row of working turbines and the reliance on wind course in respect to the column heading is examined. The point is to portray the extent of the wake impacts and give a sign of the indication of wind bearing. The target is to delineate whether the uniting of wakes inside extensive wind homesteads can be depicted by basic direct models or whether the consideration...
Nowadays the use of renewable energy including wind energy has risen dramatically. Because of the increasing development of wind power production, improvement of the prediction of wind turbine output energy using classical or intelligent methods is necessary. To optimize the power produced in a wind turbine, speed of the turbine should vary with wind speed. Variable speed operation of wind turbines...
In recent years the use of renewable energy including wind energy has risen dramatically. Because of the increasing development of wind power production, improvement of the control of wind turbines using classical or intelligent methods is necessary. To optimize the power produced in a wind turbine, the speed of the turbine should vary with the wind speed. Variable-speed operation of wind turbines...
