  1. 1. Meteorological Investigation of Preconditions for Extreme-Scale Wind Turbines in Scandinavia

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Christoffer Hallgren; [2013]
    Keywords : extreme-scale wind turbines; wind power; wind power density; wind atlas; MERRA; reanalysis data; extremskaliga vindkraftverk; vindkraft; vindenergidensitet; vindatlas; MERRA; återanalysdata;

    Abstract : During the last three decades, the hub height of wind turbines has increased from 24 to 162 meters and with an increasing demand for break-through innovations in green energy production it seems likely that this trend will continue. The meteorological preconditions for extreme-scale wind turbines are investigated for Scandinavia using 33 years of reanalysis data from MERRA (Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications).

  3. 2. Gross Annual Energy Production for Wind Turbines in Sweden as a Function of Wind Speed from the MIUU Mesoscale Atmospheric Model

    University essay from Matematiska institutionen

    Author : Christian Medin; [2013]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this thesis I find a function for how Gross Annual Energy Production per square meter of rotor area depends on wind data from the MIUU Mesoscale Atmospheric Model. The result can be used in the early stages of the process of finding a suitable site for a new wind farm. READ MORE

  4. 3. Wind Climate Estimates - Validation of Modelled Wind Climate and Normal Year Correction

    University essay from Luft- och vattenlära

    Author : Martin Högström; [2007]
    Keywords : Modelled Wind Climate; MIUU-model; Normal Year Correction; Wind Energy;

    Abstract : Long time average wind conditions at potential wind turbine sites are of great importance when deciding if an investment will be economically safe. Wind climate estimates such as these are traditionally done with in situ measurements for a number of months. READ MORE

  5. 4. Downscaling of Wind Fields Using NCEP-NCAR-Reanalysis Data and the Mesoscale MIUU-Model

    University essay from

    Author : Mattias Larsson; [2006]
    Keywords : dynamic downscaling; wind field; NCEP NCAR reanalysis; MIUU-model;

    Abstract : The profitability from the production wind power energy is related to the quality of the wind speed forecasts. All wind predicting methods needs meteorological data, for the prevailing synoptic situation, as input. High quality input is wanted for a better result. READ MORE

  6. 5. Development and validation of a new mass-consistent model using terrain-influenced coordinates

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Linus Magnusson; [2005]
    Keywords : mass-consistent model; terrain-influenced vertical coordinate system; model comparison; MIUU-model;

    Abstract : Simulations of the wind climate in complex terrain may be useful in many cases, e.g. for wind energy mapping. In this study a new mass-consistent model (MCM), the λ-model, was developed and the ability of the model was examined. READ MORE
