Further Results on Modeling, Analysis, and Control Synthesis for Offshore Wind Turbine Systems
2014
Renewable energy is a hot topic all over the world. Nowadays, there are several sustainable renewable power solutions out there; hydro, wind, solar, wave, and biomass to name a few. Most countries have a tendency to want to become greener. In the past, all new wind parks were installed onshore. During the last decade, more and more wind parks were installed offshore, in shallow water. This chapter investigates a comparative study on the modeling, analysis, and control synthesis for the offshore wind turbine systems. More specifically, an \( {\mathcal{H}}_{\infty } \) static output-feedback control design with constrained information is designed. Constrained information indicates that a rema…
Rendita catastale e “rendita solare” degli impianti di produzione elettrica a fonti rinnovabili: perequazione fiscale energetico-immobiliare
2014
Fra i temi affrontati dalla legge 11 marzo 2011, n. 23, recante delega al governo per un sistema fiscale più equo, spiccano le questioni fondamentali della riforma catastale e della fiscalità energetico-ambientale, di cui si tratta nel presente studio. La nuova riforma del catasto dei fabbricati aspira a realizzare un sistema fiscale più perequato at-traverso la rimozione della disparità fra redditi (e valori) catastali e redditi (e valori) osservabili nei mercati immobiliari. Il tema catastale è rilevante per i molteplici effetti fiscali che ne derivano, e il divario esistente fra i valori di mercato e quelli catastali, hanno suscitato un grande interesse degli studiosi di estimo, stimolan…
Methodology for Calculating the Potential Maritime Wind Park Area by Taking into Account the Needs of Shipping Sector
2018
Renewable energy sources (wind energy, solar energy, hydroelectricity, ocean energy, geothermal energy, biomass and biofuels) are alternatives to fossil fuel that help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, diversify energy supplies and reduce dependency on markets of unsustainable and volatile fossil fuels, particularly oil and gas. Wind energy is one of the renewable energy sources and is considered to be self-renewable as it is the result of the Sun’s activity. Using wind energy is a rapidly developing industry today, and more and more wind turbines are installed worldwide every year, land-based wind turbines being more widespread than offshore ones. In Latvia, spread of land-based wind par…
Energy and economic assessment of a small domestic wind turbine in Palermo
2016
The cost effectiveness of micro-wind technology is closely linked to the annual energy production plants, which strongly depends on the wind characteristics and on the morphological properties of the installation site. The power curve of a wind turbine, supplied by manufacturers, characterizes the theoretical energy performance that it should have at a particular site. The behavior of a wind turbine in the field is affected by the speed but also by wind direction variations. At each change of direction and speed, the turbine will try to adapt to new conditions and the phase transition negatively influences the energy production. In order to experimentally confirm what above mentioned, the a…
Toward farm-level health management of wind turbine systems: status and scope for improvements
2018
An outline of health management for OWFs has been detailed in this chapter with description of various important elements. The need for such farm level management is explained and benefits are discussed. Key gaps to be filled in order to realize such a system are identified. The proposed health management system is mainly based on the existing knowledge of fleet-level management in the aerospace sector. Health management is much broader than CM; there are a number of aspects beyond the prognostics capabilities that are to be designed in order to arrive at a comprehensive maintenance management scheme. A comprehensive maintenance program that is sensitive to the health of the assets and adap…
