Wind resource assessment in cold climate regions
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-14)
Cold regions have good potential for wind energy development, but icing on wind turbines is recognize as a hindrance limiting the wind energy production in ice prone cold regions. This master thesis work is linked with Wind-CoE project of Arctic Technology Research Team and is aimed on better understanding of wind resource assessment in cold regions. Three years (2013-15) field SCADA data from ...
Research on optimization of freeform surface operation
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-14)
Nowadays, many manufacturing companies need to face competition both in domestic and international level. Due to this circumstance, manufacturers recognize that one useful method to enhance their competence is reducing the lead-time of manufacturing. There are many researchers focused on minimize the time of actual cutting, tool path optimization and energy consumption optimization etc. However, few ...
Field data processing techniques
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-14)
The problem of global warming raised up interest to renewable energy. To reduce cost of wind energy is challenge. Before building of wind park such conditions like: average wind speed, direction, time for each wind, probability of icing. Also have to be considered amplitude of wind changes and their amount. This thesis presents Nygårdsfjellet wind turbine park data analysing for determining power ...
