Calculation of wind energy helps to maintain stability between electricity production and consumption. Deep learning models are used for predicting time series data. However, as wind speed is non-stationary and irregular, pre-processing of these data is necessary to get accurate results. In this paper, static normalization techniques like min–max, z-score, and adaptive normalization are used for pre-processing wind datasets, and further, their forecasting results are compared. Adaptive normalization increases the learning rate and gives better forecasting results than static normalization. The RMSE value was reduced by 9.18% for the NREL dataset when adaptive normalization was used instead of z-score normalization and by 23.58% for the Weather dataset. The datasets used are taken from National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and Kaggle’s Dataset.","PeriodicalId":51570,"journal":{"name":"Wind Engineering","volume":"28 1","pages":"1606 - 1617"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84701893","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The projections indicate that throughout the century, the speed of the surface wind will continue to increase to a greater or lesser extent (depending on the scenario) in most of the national territory, mainly towards the coast north, as an intensification and westward shift of the anticyclone North Atlantic could occur. The most important thing about this increase is that allows to consolidate the current projection of the Cuban wind program, in which the construction of 13 wind farms is proposed, precisely where the wind potential of Cuba will be increased. Finally this increase is added to the wind speed outputs of the Numerical Wind Atlas of Cuba to estimate the values of wind speed over the future periods.","PeriodicalId":51570,"journal":{"name":"Wind Engineering","volume":"43 1","pages":"1389 - 1407"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86782553","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A generalized structured is developed with two independent equivalent circuits, that is, PMSG and grid side. To effectively determine the converters performance numerals despite grid disturbances, steady-state model is structured with positive sequence components of grid voltage. The advantage of the proposed model is that the methods evade the requirements of d-q modeling and a dedicated controller to evaluate the system performance. Using the proposed steady-state model, the entire WPS components ratings is predicted evading time domain simulation with complicated controller design. Also, the simple controller design is proposed to aid in optimal power flow supplement with FRT requirements under all possible system operating conditions. Ultimately, validation of predetermined values with the simulated PSCAD/EMTDC response including the proposed controller is investigated.","PeriodicalId":51570,"journal":{"name":"Wind Engineering","volume":"76 1","pages":"1570 - 1589"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86824904","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We analyze data stemming from a simulated vibration response of a 5 MW multibody wind turbine model in a healthy and damaged scenarios and under different wind conditions. With cyclostationary and kurtogram analysis applied on acquired sensor data, we generate two types of 2D maps that highlight signatures related to the fault damage.

In order to realize the direct control of wind turbine output power across a wide range of wind speeds, a linearized parameter varying dynamic model of the nonlinear wind turbine system including wind disturbances is developed and used in this paper. The stability of the wind turbine system is analyzed and a blade pitch controller is designed, based on the linearized, parameter-varying, model-predictive control and is validated. Thus, the wind turbine is regulated in a way that the generator delivers the demanded power output to the load. Moreover, the blade pitch control system also performs the key function of augmenting the stability of the wind turbine, for the right choice of the gains.","PeriodicalId":51570,"journal":{"name":"Wind Engineering","volume":"20 1","pages":"126 - 140"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78747674","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Machine learning techniques applied to wind turbines’ operation and maintenance (O&M) are reviewed. The data sources, feature engineering and model selection (classification, regression) and validation are all used to categorise these data-driven models. Our findings suggest that (a) most models use 10-minute mean SCADA data, though the use of high-resolution data has shown greater advantages as compared to 10-minute mean value but comes with high computational challenges. (b) Most of SCADA data are confidential and not available in the public domain which slows down technological advancements. (c) These datasets are used for both, the classification and regression of wind turbines but are used in classification extensively. And, (d) most commonly used data-driven models are neural networks, support vector machines, probabilistic models and decision trees and each of these models has its own merits and demerits.

The proposed implementation uses 3-node line cross-sectional finite elements with nodes having rotational degrees of freedom to describe the cross-sectional warping displacements. Solutions obtained using this approach were verified against the corresponding analytical or numerical solutions. Agreement was very good to excellent for the computation of cross-sectional properties and distribution of stresses, strains and warping displacements for a broad range of possible composite beam behaviors including geometric and material couplings, open sections, multicell sections, and arbitrary laminates. For thin-walled layered structures, the proposed method provides models with fewer degrees of freedom than equivalent models based on a two-dimensional discretization of cross sections using triangular or quadrilateral elements such as conventional NABSA or VABS which suggests that computation time could be reduced.","PeriodicalId":51570,"journal":{"name":"Wind Engineering","volume":"36 1","pages":"157 - 174"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77748599","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lamhamdi","doi":"10.1177/0309524X221124335","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1177/0309524X221124335","url":null,"abstract":"The combination of demand response as demand side management together with energy management system has become essential to minimize energy cost, to maintain continuous supply of electricity, and to improve the safety of power system operation. This paper studies the optimal energy dispatch of connected microgrid units containing photovoltaic panels, wind turbine generators, diesel generators, and the main grid. The optimal set point of microgrid’s units is determined to satisfy the required load demand for a day-ahead horizon time. As the demand response is an important way of demand side management, this paper proposes as the main contribution the implementation of demand response cost as one of the objective functions to be maximized to view its effect on load demand consumption, on MG energy production and on MG energy cost. The demand response is implemented by using an incentive based demand response program in the optimization model in addition to the fuel cost of diesel generators and the transfer cost of transferable power. The incentive payment offered by utilities is used to motivate consumers to change their energy consumption behavior and thus to reduce their power consumption and maintain the system reliability during on-peak periods. Thus the objective function is formulated to maximize microgrid operator’s demand response benefit, and to minimize both the fuel cost of diesel generators, and the transfer cost of transferable power. For this purpose, the defined objective function is solved by a Hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization with Sine Cosine Acceleration Coefficients (H-PSO-SCAC) algorithm for an optimal energy management system of the connected microgrid. For the simulation tests, different algorithms are examined in order to validate the effectiveness of the H-PSO-SCAC algorithm. The impact of demand response program is analyzed on the load demand consumption, on the microgrid energy production and its influence on the optimized microgrid cost function. The results demonstrate that the implementation of demand response has changed the previous situation that costumers do not participate in the operation of the power system. And it enables microgrid to decrease load consumption, microgrid energy production, as well as energy cost.","PeriodicalId":51570,"journal":{"name":"Wind Engineering","volume":"54 1","pages":"266 - 282"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79762197","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed controller is applied to control the generated doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) active and reactive power installed on a variable speed wind energy conversion system. The control objective is used to regulate independently the DFIG stator active and reactive power, which are decoupled by using the field oriented control technique. Additionally, this process leads to reduce the cost of control scheme by eliminating the speed sensor. Firstly, the DFIG is modeled under the port controlled Hamiltonian (PCH) model, as well as the method of simultaneous injection damping. Then, the DFIG is further modeled by assignment passivity based on the simultaneous injection damping and assignment (SIDA-PBC) control of the obtained model under such conditions and a comparison with the fuzzy sliding mode controller is carried out. Furthermore, the HGO is selected in order to estimate the rotor position and the speed from the measurement of the DFIG currents and voltages, and compared with fuzzy sliding mode observer. For testing the proposed control scheme performance, a 1.5 MW DFIG system is developed and simulated using MATLAB/Simulink. The obtained results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme in the presence of various DFIG parameters variation. Additionally, the control objective is achieved without speed sensor.","PeriodicalId":51570,"journal":{"name":"Wind Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":"86 - 103"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83836977","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
