Énergie Vol. 8: Wind Énergie
Description
Wind energy appears en le form de mechanical energy that can be used directly pour mechanical work or electrical power generation without requiring thermodynamic conversion, but it is dilute en nature due to generally low wind velocities. So it requires large wind turbines to produce practically significant amount de energy. Large modern wind turbines operate together en wind farms to produce electricity pour utilities, while small turbines are used by homeowners et remote villages to help meet energy needs. Wind is now le fastest growing energy source en le world. Le total installed capacity de wind powered generators all over le world en June 2014 was 336 gigawatts (GW). China, United States, Germany, Spain et Inde are le top 5 countries en le world en wind power installed capacity. Le volume 8 is a compilation de articles sur diverse approaches pour wind resource assessment, types de wind turbines, their performances et selection criteria, wind energy storage systems et many more. Le volume 8 involves discussion sur le following topics: • Wind power • Wind energy resource assessment methods • Mathématique models et other alternate approaches pour wind resource assessment • Accuracy check de wind speed measurements pour wind energy study • Wind turbine generators • Wind energy et wind turbine selection • Optimization de wind turbine airfoils/blades et wind farm layouts • Physique de fluids sur stall delay de le rotating blade de horizontal-axis wind turbine • Progress en Magnus type wind turbine theories • State-of-the-art, issues et recommendations pour wind turbine condition monitoring • Méthodes pour wind turbine protection against direct atmospheric discharges • Evaluation de wind turbine power generation • Matrix converters en wind energy systems • Conception concepts en movable wind energy plants • Wind et biomass energies Le volume 8 contains 15 chapters from 22 researchers and/or academicians representing 11 nations, namely Algeria, Iran, Malaysia, Nigeria, Poland, Serbia, Singapore, Taiwan, Turkey, United Kingdom et United States de America giving an overview de le various research activities being carried out en different parts de le world en le area de Wind Énergie
