• Estimating production loss due to icing on wind turbines 

      Haaland, Silje Sanderud (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2011-06)
      Icing on wind turbines are known to lower their performance, but the exact relationship between wind, ice and power production is not known. In this thesis power loss due to icing on turbine blades at Aapua wind park is investigated for the winter season 2009-2010. The total loss is found to be 30%, whereof 25% is concluded being due to icing. Three different methods are presented to estimate ...
