THE NEW EMPIRICAL APPROACH TO THE MODELLING OF LOCAL WIND

CHARACTERISTICS

Summary: The study of wind characteristics with the emphasis on the efficient wind energy extraction is performed. The new analytical expression for the wind speed frequency distribution function , which is based on systematic experimental data, is suggested. It is shown that the use of such empirical expression in the wind characteristics analysis can provide more close to reality estimate of local wind energy potential and the energy output of wind turbines which are installed at a particular site area. It can also be used in the procedure of optimal parametric design of wind turbines.

Key words: wind speed, frequency distribution, mathematical description, power density, wind potential, wind turbine, energy output.

1. Introductory remarks. Wind energy transformation into electricity over the last few decades experienced significant progress in the world. The substantial growth of wind energy production requires the further study and analysis of wind

characteristics. Obtaining the reliable wind data, primarily on the local level, is relevant to the following topics:

- Selection of a particular site which is suitable for deploying wind turbines (WT);

- Decision of now many and what types of wind turbines can be installed at the particular site area;

- Planning and performance evalution of the energy output and cost effectiveness of the wind energy system.

For this purpose it is important to have detailed knowledge of the site-specific wind data and their analytical description. Wind characteristics were studied by many researchers. Some of the relevant publications are directly devoted to the problem of wind energy extraction [1-9]. At the same time, the modelling and rational mathematical description of wind characteristics, especially oriented on the problem of wind turbine site selection, still needs the further studies. The some new approach to the solution of such problem is presented in a given paper.

2. Methodical background. Wind characteristics and other principal atmospheric parameters are recorded and analysed at the numerous meteorological stations which are scattered around the world. The meteorological statistics includes two types of characteristics - measured and modelled. Among the measured atmospheric parameters are: pressure, density, temperature, humidity and others. The main parameter which is systematically measured is wind speed (WS). There are also several modelled characteristics which are directly related to wind energy extraction. They are as follows: mean annual WS; WS frequency distribution; WS variability; mean annual power density (PD); WS which produces maximum energy; power curve; energy output of wind turbine (WT) and others. The main modelled characteristics and their mathematical description will be considered below.

3. Wind characteristics. Mean wind speed Vc

is determined for a proper period of time (usually for one year, when T = 8760 hours) and given by

1 n

Vc =1 tV

n

1)

of acceptable WT sites is recommended to be 10 minutes (for the open terrain). Most of the measurements are made about 10m above the ground. But knowledge of WS at the heights up to the hub of WT, i.e. at elevations of 20 to 120m is very desirable. It is known that wind power output is increasing with elevation over the ground and this fact is necessary to count in WT design. In order to estimate WS frequency distribution they are normally measured in integer

values, including zero, i.e. Vj =0; 1; 2... m/s. In this

case mean value of WS should be given by

1 *

Vc = -t mV .

ni=1

2)

Where mj is the number occurrence of Vj, X

is the total number of different (digital) values of WS observed and n is total number of observations.

Wind speed variability is another important modelled characteristic. The deviation of each wind speed

Vj from mean value vc is characterized by so called

variance J, which is presented as

n

=—л t (Vi - Vc )2.

n -1 i=i

3)

The standard deviation is defined as square root of variance.

Wind parameters vary in random way and that is why their analysis is based on the use of probability theory and mathematical statistics. The probability

p(Vj) of the discrete wind speed Vj being observed

is defined as

pV )=m

n

4)

Here Vj is a set of measured wind speeds, and

n is total number of observation. WS is disposed to the strong temporal, spatial and directional variations. That is why, is order to get reliable result it is necessary to follow generally accepted procedure of measurements. It means the use commonly agreed averaging time interval, standard reference height of anemometers over the ground etc. In most cases, the wind characteristics data are typically recorded once an hour (usually, every third hour). At the same time, it is necessary to note, that according to IEC Standard the most common averaging interval used in selection

Here mj is the number of occurrences of a given wind speed Vj, and n is total number of measurements. The cumulative distribution function f (vj ) is WS characteristics, which is the probability that a measured discrete WS will be greater or equal to Vj and is expressed by

F(Vi )= tp(Vj ).

j=1

5)

The discrete WS frequency distribution is usually presented by tables or histograms. The typical histogram is shown in Fig.1. Here and later WS frequency distribution is considered on the annual basis.

For a number of theoretical reasons it is more convenient to model WS frequency distribution by

continuous mathematical function f (Vj). In this

case the function f (V) represents the probability of the WS being within the small interval AV = 1m/s , which is centered on a given V. The continuous cumulative function F(V) represents the probability that given WS is greater or equal to V and is related to frequency distribution function according to relation

The normalization of f (v) and F(V) can be presented as

The mean (expectation) value of WS is given by

m(V)= Vc =J0°vf(v)dv, 9)

There exist several different analytical representations of wind speed density function f (V).

Among them are the most common in contemporary use Weibull and Rayleigh function. The Weibull two-

f (v)=A f V

Here A and B are shape and scale parameter respectively. In case of wind characteristics modelling the constants A and B will depend on measured local wind data and can be obtained in the process of fitting the observed WS frequency distribution. The data collected at many location around the world can be reasonably well described by Weibull density function. The substitution of (12) into (9) and integration leads to expression

is gamma function. Expres-

sion (13) contains three parameters - vc, B and A.

Each of them can be determined, when two other are known. Mean annual WS is usually obtained at the most meteorological stations and this fact is used in the process of determination of A and B at the given location.

The one-parametric Rayleigh distribution function can be considered as subset of Weibull, in which the shape parameter A=2.

Here vc is mean value of wind speed. It should

be noted that that Weibull function is somewhat versatile and Rayleigh function is somewhat simpler to use. The comparative quality at fitting the wind characteristics data with the use of Weibull and Rayleigh statistics can be estimated only on the basis of addition analysis. One of the difficulties in application of Weibull statistics is quite cumbersome procedure of selection the correct parameters A and B in the analytical description of local wind speed frequency distribution.

It is also necessary to note, that both Weibull and Rayleigh distributions cannot fit a WS frequency curve at zero speed. At the same time it is known that in

reality frequency of calm (when V = 0) is always

greater then zero. The peak value of f (v) in both

distributions does not correspond to mean value of

wind speed vc and it is difficult to explain.

4. Analytical description of experimental data.

To avoid the indicated negative patterns of the above mentioned functions it is necessary to employ more substantiated approach to analytical description of WS frequency distribution. Such approach which is based on the use of systematic experimental data is suggested in this paper. One of the most detailed representation of the large amount of experimental data has been given by Pomortzev in [4]. He analyzed and summarized wind characteristic data for five years period (1887-1891) which have been collected at 19 meteorological stations at the territories of Russia and several European countries. The data are presented in Fig. 3

On the basis of these experimental data, as well as data given in [1-2] and others works, the new em-

In this relation f m is maximum value of the function f (v) which correspond to the mean annual value of each wind speed vc . The value of f m and vc are considered to be known from experimental data. The constant g in (16) is supposed to be different for the left (g = gi) and right (g = g2)

In order to widen the range of application of (16) we will use the statistical properties of frequency distribution functions (8) and (9).

The shape parameter A in Weibull function (12) was determined with the use of relation recommended by [5]

A = dy^V

(

25)

Here d is site-specific constant with average value of 0.94 (its value is between 0.79 and 1.05 for 80% of sites). The scale parameter B was determined from (13). Rayleigh function (15) is written for vc =6 m/s. The presented comparison shows that suggested

in this paper relation (16) reasonably well correlates with available experimental data. The function (16) further will be used for the description of several modelled wind characteristics.

Here p is air density.

The important modelling characteristic is wind power density

Pw = 0.5 pV:

(27)

Vc =f V 3f (V )dV, We can write

(29)

(30)

The mean annual wind power density, which can characterize the expected wind energy yield at the selected wind turbine site, is given by

Pwc = 0.5pf^V3 f (V)dV (28)

The upper limit in the integral can be replaced by large but finite value without noticeable loss of correctness. As far as a mean value of a cubed WS will be

Pwc = 0.5 pVc

The substitution of suggested empirical expression for f (v) in (28) and (29) makes PWC easily

obtainable for each value of Vc . It can be shown that

a cubed wind speed frequency distribution is equal to zero at V=0, reaches a peak value at some wind speed

VMc , and finally returns to zero at large values of V . It means that wind speed VMc produces more energy than any other speed. The curve @(V) for different vc is shown in Fig. 6.
