      Mughal, Umair Najeeb; Virk, Muhammad Shakeel; Mustafa, Mohamad (Peer reviewed; Journal article; Tidsskriftsartikkel, 2016)
      A design study of an atmospheric icing sensor is presented in this article. The proposed design of the sensor is aimed to detect an atmospheric icing event, to determine ice type as well as to measure icing load, icing rate and melting rate. This sensor is constantly slowly rotating cylinder with four fins which measure atmospheric icing load and icing rate using rotational load measurement technique. ...
    • Review of energy demands and wind resource assessment of the Solovetsky Archipelago 

      Ghani, Rizwan; Virk, Muhammad Shakeel; Kangash, Aleksei; Maryandshev, Pavel; lubov, viktar; Mustafa, Mohamad (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2019-07)
      This paper aims to analyse the current situation of the energy system of the remote island territory of Solovetsky Archipelago. The Solovetsky historical and cultural complex was included in the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Diesel fuel, which is used on the archipelago is expensive and pollutes the environment. By using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) based numerical method, this study ...
    • State of the Art Review of Atmospheric Icing Sensors 

      Mughal, Umair Najeeb; Virk, Muhammad Shakeel; Mustafa, Mohamad (Journal article; Peer reviewed; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2016-03-31)
      A state of the art review of atmospheric icing sensors is presented in this article, in order to understand their design and working principle for future developments. It is found that most atmospheric icing sensors which are capable of delivering maximum information are based upon direct measurement of the physical properties (electrical or mechanical) of atmospheric ice. Some field measurements ...
    • Wind energy at remote islands in arctic region—A case study of Solovetsky islands 

      Ghani, Rizwan; Kangash, Aleksei; Virk, Muhammad Shakeel; Maryandshev, Pavel; Mustafa, Mohamad (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-10-07)
      This paper describes a case study of wind resource assessment and wind park design at the Solovetsky Islands, which are located in the Arctic region of northern Russia. The Solovetsky historical and cultural complex has been included in the list of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites. 18 years of data of wind climatology from the NASA Langley Research Center are used for wind resource assessment at the ...
