An Empirically Based Stochastic Turbulence Simulator with Temporal Coherence for Wind Energy Applications
(2016)In this dissertation, we develop a novel methodology for characterizing and simulating nonstationary, full-field, stochastic turbulent wind fields. In this new method, nonstationarity is characterized and modeled via temporal ... -
Energy Storage in Deregulated Market Structures
(2009-12-04)Wind energy is able to provide electricity with a minimal environmental footprint and is therefore anticipated to play a much larger role in future electricity generation. Although wind is able to provide electricity with ... -
Phase Coherence in Wind Data and Simulation
(2014)Novel wind turbine designs are deemed acceptable through a simulation-based certification process that involves generating a synthetic wind record and using it as an input to a computer model of the turbine. Naturally, ... -
The Effect of Utilities Regulation on the Economics of Wind Energy in North Carolina
(2009-04-24)In order for wind energy to be feasible in the sounds of North Carolina, it must be economical. The price paid for electricity produced by wind must be sufficiently high to translate into a reasonable rate of return for ...
