Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Two-Dimensional Wave Prediction Model Along the Best Track of Typhoon Linda 1997Worachat Wannawong, Usa W. Humphries, Prungchan Wongwises et al.Problem statement: A two-dimensional wave prediction model along the best track of Typhoon Linda 1997 was interested to study the impact of typhoon wind-wave characteristics. The dynamical wave model with deep water condition was used to predict the wave height (Hs) of Typhoon Linda before and after entering into the Gulf of Thailand (GoT). Approach: The standard one-way nested grid … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,244 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrating Renewable and Nonrenewable Energies in Power Plant PlanningHabib H. Al-Ali, Yousef Saif, Ali Elkamel, Ali LohiProblem statement: Electricity can be generated from different type of technologies such as fossil and non-fossil power plants. Among these technologies, coal-fired power plants have been a major route for electricity generation. Recently, environmental constraints were imposed over the coal power plant operations in order to reduce their emissions. Besides, renewable energy power plants such as hydroelectric, wind, solar and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,804 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReference Solar Radiation Year and Some Climatology Aspects of East Coast of West MalaysiaAbdul Majeed Muzathik, Wan Mohd Norsani Bin Wan Nik, Khalid Bin Samo, Mohd Zamri IbrahimProblem statement: This study examined in detail some aspects of radiation climatology for Terengganu state in Malaysia. The geographical co-ordinates of the site are 5°10’N latitude 103°06’E longitude and 5.2 m altitude. Approach: The data used in the present study were taken from a recording data station installed at site by the Malaysian Meteorology Department (2004). In addition to this, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Critical Review of Global Wind Power GenerationT. Ahilan, Dr. K.P. Mohammed, Dr. S. ArumughamThis research begins with an overview of wind development and installation-related trends, including trends in capacity growth. Development of wind power has reached a level of maturity, which could be taken upon for further novelty and growth in meeting the future energy needs in much greater proportion. Current research techniques are producing stronger, lighter and more efficient blades for the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,485 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProspects of Wind Farm Development in AlgeriaY. Himri, A. Boudghene Stambouli, B. DraouiThis study utilized wind speed data over a period of almost 10 years between 1977 and 1988 from three stations, namely Adrar, Timimoun and Tindouf in order to assess the energy output for a 30 MW installed capacity wind farm at each site in Algeria, in terms of gross energy, renewable energy delivered, specific yield and wind farm capacity factor. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,083 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeismic Behavior of Vertical Shear Links made of Easy-Going SteelAmir Saedi Daryan, Hesam Bahrampoor, Masood Ziaei et al.Problem Statement: Since the time that steel was first used as a construction material, engineers have attempted to increase strength, reduce weight and produce more economical structures by using elegant member sections. However, the increase in steel strength and the decrease in cross section area are not always useful and in some cases it is necessary to reduce the strength … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,211 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Applied Research Program on Water Desalination with Renewable EnergiesSergio M. Alcocer, Gerardo HiriartThe use of renewable energy for desalination might be quite different in many places of the world. In Mexico, specifically in Baja California, there is an abundance of "traditional" renewable resources like sun and wind but also some others like hot springs at the coast, tidal currents and tidal amplitudes of over six meters in the upper part of the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,203 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPitch Angle Control of Variable Speed Wind TurbineYousif El-TousThe aim of this study is to design a simple controller to maximize the extracted energy of wind turbines. In this study the pitch angle control of variable speed wind turbine is investigated. In particular, it concentrates on the extraction of maximum available energy, reduction of torque and output power variations, which gives stresses in the gearbox and mechanical structure. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 8,735 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWind Speed Simulation Using WaveletsA. H. Siddiqi, S. Khan, S. RehmanMost of the renewable energy sources have direct or indirect link with the sun. Wind is also a form of solar energy. It is initiated by uneven heating of the atmospheric air by the sun, affected from the topography and surface roughness of the earth's surface and rotation of the earth. The earth's terrain, water surfaces and vegetation cover modifies … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,546 accessesView PDFCite
