12 Overview: Wind Resources

Class Wind Sessions:Wind Resources, Part 1Wind Energy Theory, Part 2Wind Turbine Theory, Part 1Wind Turbine Practice, Part 2Hybrid Wind Systems

Wind resources are distributed unevenly around the World

Wind “Prospecting” shows where higher (economically useful) winds are located

Wind passage is measured in miles (or km) of wind per hour or per day; divide to get miles per hour average

12.0.2.11.1 Florida Has Marginal Wind Energy

These wind energy maps are available for each state and for the World

Coastal Florida is Class 2 with seabreeze and storm front passages

Summer ground heating results in ~10 mph seabreezes and storms

Winter is calmer, with frontal storm passages averaging every four days

12.0.5.1 Wind Statistics and Assessment

Wind speed and direction are measured by an anemometerSpeed is derived from rotating cups or a

spinning propeller driving an interrupter device or a small electric generator

Data are logged electronically for later processingThe mean (average) and peak (gust) speeds

are of the greatest importanceTurbulence may affect turbine efficiency, but

yawing points the turbine into the average windTen-minute averages are used for power

assessment, while gust studies may require two to ten points per second

12.0.6.1 Roberts Hall 103 ft Wind Gusts 2/13/08

Wind gusts reached 32 mph at 103 ft during a storm passage

Gust measured as highest one-second value in a minute

Data logged each second and averages created for each minute100222

12.0.5.2 Wind Statistics and Assessment

Dataloggers have a limit to storage, and more points per second means storage fills faster

The memory can be filled and stop recording, or better, the memory can over-write the earliest dataIf a major storm passes, the data may be

downloaded shortly thereafterDataloggers write and store data in a

compressed format that is often proprietaryA proprietary program is then used to export the

data on a serial link as a text file that can later be interpreted by other programs, like MS Excel

12.0.5.3 Wind Statistics and Assessment

Once the data are in the processing format, they must be screened to detect missing or bad data to prevent contamination of the results

These series strings of data may then be processed to determine key statistics:Highest speeds, averages, medians, modes,

histograms, exceedance curves, etc.

12.0.5.4 Statistical Exceedance Curves

Accumulated data can be sorted by value to gain an understanding of the statistical distributionNo distribution must

be assumed --- known as nonparametric statistics

Compute the percentile exceeded for each value and plot the values vs. the percentiles from 0% to 100%

Determine the minimum, maximum, median, 10%-tile, and 90%-tile values

A Weibull curve may be fit to the data to suggest a distribution

12.0.6.4 Predominant Wind Energy DirectionDetermines the Site Selected

The energy rose is the cube of the wind speed (flower-like) rose

In Palm Bay, Florida, this one-day wind data sample shows the main wind direction at 150 degrees azimuth

An FPL WindLogics report shows Ft. Pierce FL annual estimates for 80 meters

Several years of data are averaged to get a useful sample; 30 years desirable

In obstructed areas, the site selection is critical to obtain the maximum wind energy

12.0 Conclusion: Wind Resources 1

Wind resources vary greatly with latitude, season, and surrounding terrain

Extensive data and wind maps exist for wind prospecting

At the mesoscale level, topographic information is being used to create predictions of wind speed from scattered real data

Anemometers can be erected to obtain wind speeds in a likely locale for comparison to NWS long-term records

An alternative is to erect a small wind turbine to sample the energy and help determine where a large turbine should be placed

Wind resources may be excellent, but there is much more to installing a turbine
