- W44134444 abstract "This thesis investigates the potential of using wind turbine to offset electricitydemand for dwellings or public building. This work involves onshore small andlarge wind turbine implementation considering the suitability of the location tomachine size, starting with wind resource assessment of a candidate sitedepending on reliable wind data. The present research can be divided into threemain parts: modelling and monitoring of small wind turbine performance in builtenvironment using detailed data which was measured on site, measuring longtermhourly data for the design of wind energy systems, and then comparingthat annual energy output against four-second and minute by minute data. Thethird 'part presents a novel statistical tool developed to evaluate relativeperformance and overall accuracy of wind speed frequency distributionfunctions.An exploration of the potential for using hourly- as opposed to minute-by-minutedata for the utilization of large wind turbines was undertaken as the former set ismuch more widely available for a larger number of locations within thedeveloping world. It was found that the difference between the annual energyoutputs from the latter two data sets was in close agreement with only smalldifferences. The results thus obtained can have significant effect. on the capitalcost related to purchase of data, since minute by minute data may be up to 60times more expensive than hourly data.Actual power curve was experimentally obtained for Zephyr Dolphin micro windturbine, which was then compared to manufacturer's reported performance; thiswas done by using four-second data for two complete years. Significantdifferences were found between the two curves. On-site measured performanceof mentioned wind turbine was found to be similar for other reported urbanlocations. In each case the measured output was only a sixth of the acclaimedoutput of 2 MWh/annum.Urban wind energy potential for Merchiston site inEdinburgh was investigated. The results are presented in the form of averagewind speed, wind roses, and density distribution functions. The effect ofsampling interval on wind energy production was also analysed. Finally localspatial variations of wind speed were also studied for the City of Edinburgh." @default.
