• Design of a pipeline flexibility bench 

      Ghani, Rizwan (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-08-15)
      In this thesis “Design of pipeline flexibility bench” an exertion has been made to make a conclusive study of fluid flow through pipe. Analysis has been carried out using analytical and numerical approach, where advance computer aided engineering tools such as CFD & FEM approach is used to study the flow behavior in different pipe configurations. Results show a significant change in wall shear stress ...
    • 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 ...
    • 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 ...
    • Wind Turbine Wake Effects on Wind Resource Assessments – a Case Study 

      Jin, Jia Yi; Ghani, Rizwan; Virk, Muhammad Shakeel (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-08-24)
      This paper describes a case study of wind turbine wake loss effects on wind resource assessment in cold region. One year wind park SCADA data is used. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) based numerical simulations are carried out for wind resource assessment and estimation of resultant Annual Energy Production (AEP). Numerical results are compared with the field SCADA data, where a good agreement ...
