1. 1. Case Study of Uncertainties Connected to Long-term Correction of Wind Observations

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

   Author : Elisabeth Saarnak; [2013]
   Keywords : wind climate; uncertainty; long-term correction; Measure-Correlate-Predict; MCP; reanalysis dataset; seasonal variation; on-site measurements; vindklimat; osäkerhet; normalårskorrigering; Measure-Correlate-Predict; MCP; återanalysdata; säsongsvariation; vindmätning;

   Abstract : Good knowledge about on-site wind climate is necessary in wind power assessments. Due to yearly and natural variability, short-term on-site measurements do not themselves give information about the wind climate. Long-term reference data can be used to correct the short-term observations to better correspond to a normal year. READ MORE

3. 2. Evaluation and development of normal year correction methodologies for icing climatology in wind farm applications

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

   Author : Rebecka Klintström; [2012]
   Keywords : ice modeling normal year correction icing of wind turbines mesoscale meteorological models; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Wind power developments in cold and icing conditions pose new challenges to the wind power industry. Icing of wind turbines cause safety hazards, production losses and increased loads. 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
