ABB has introduced a new grid feeding monitoring relay for wind applications. The new low-voltage grid feeding monitoring relay CM-UFD.M33, also known as the Grid Tie Relay, is a state of the art ...
With over 350,000 wind turbines currently in use globally, wind continues to be one of the fastest growing forms of renewable energy. In 2021, 93.6 GW of new installations brought global cumulative ...
Wind power generation in the U.S. is enjoying favorable winds. First, the cost of wind turbine installations has dropped by over one-third since 2010 as the capacity of turbines increased. Next, ...
Each year a panel reviews papers nominated from the past two years and selects an article of high significance. The paper, published in 2022, describes the first experimental implementation of Model ...
Nikhar Abbas (PhDMechEngr’22) is taking his research on wind turbine control systems to the international stage. Abbas received the 2023 European Academy of Wind Energy (EAWE) Excellent Young Wind ...
Supervisors: Professor Mohamed Pourkashanian, Professor Lin Ma and Professor Derek Ingham. Wind turbine control is necessary to ensure low maintenance costs and efficient performance. The control ...
This article deals with the study of the particle swarm optimization algorithm and its variants. After modeling the global system, a comparative study is carried out about the algorithms described in ...
Wide variations in speed and load, changing wind direction, climatic extremes and limited space inside nacelles conspire to reduce wind turbine availability and increase maintenance costs. The primary ...
