  1. 6. Using a GIS to enable an economic, land use and energy output comparison between small wind powered turbines and large-scale wind farms: the case of Oslo, Norway.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Colin Potter; [2023]
    Keywords : Geography; GIS; Wind power; Renewable energy sources; urban wind energy; urban areas; planning; vertical axis wind turbines; comparative studies; urban integrated energy systems; Oslo; Roan; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Responding to an identified knowledge gap, the study aims to determine if smaller wind turbines located on top of existing urban buildings are more resource efficient (land utilization and economically) than large scale wind farms. To answer this question, using a GIS, the resource efficiency of the Roan wind farm in Northern Norway was compared to a theoretical modeled installation of small-scale wind turbines on top of buildings within a 2km radius study zone in central Oslo.

  3. 7. Wind Turbine Recovery Forecasting using Survival Analysis

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Anton Palets; [2023]
    Keywords : Survival analysis; Recovery Forecast; Wind Turbine; Availability Forecast; AFT model; Aalen s model; Cox regression; Cox Proportional Hazards; Variation Processes; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : The goal of this thesis is to present a methodology for predicting time until recovery of failed wind turbines. The necessity is motivated by the potential for more accurate wind energy export forecasts. The current approach rests entirely on having an expert examine the turbine and produce a time estimate.

  4. 8. Design Optimization of Savonius Wind Turbine using CFD Simulations

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

    Author : Vatsalkumar Manavar; [2023]
    Keywords : Savonius wind turbine; Computational fluid dynamics; Vertical axis wind turbine; Overlap ratio; Distance between blades; Power coefficient;

    Abstract : This thesis is based on a simulation of the Savonius wind turbine. The Savoniusturbine is a simple vertical axis device, which has half cylindrical blades attached to the main shaft opposite to each other which creates the drag force from incoming wind and generates mechanical torque which drives the generator for electricity generation.

  5. 9. Climate Impact of Wind Turbine Production : Emissions from Material and Energy Usage for Onshore and Offshore Wind Turbines

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Joel Arnelo; Maria Kolte; [2023]
    Keywords : Wind turbine production; Wind turbine components; Onshore and Offshore wind power; Wind power climate impact; Produktion av vindkraftverk; Vindkraftverk komponenter; Landbaserad och havsbaserad vindkraft; Klimatpåverkan vindkraft;

    Abstract : Wind power is a renewable energy source that is making great strides in the global energy sector. While wind power is a renewable energy source, it is not entirely free from carbon emissions. This is because the production of wind turbines is dependent on the use of energy, and as a result can emit large amounts of carbon dioxide. READ MORE

  6. 10. Analysis of performance data of wind turbines for polar regions

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Arnau Serra Garet; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The Radio Neutrino Observatory in Greenland is situated at Summit Station. Due to its isolatedlocation the main power to support the autonomous radio stations is solar energy. However,during the winter months when there is no sun another strategy needs to be found. READ MORE
