Klappentext zu „Wind Energy Explained “
Wind energy's bestselling textbook- fully revised.This must-have second edition includes up-to-date data, diagrams, illustrations and thorough new material on:
* the fundamentals of wind turbine aerodynamics;
* wind turbine testing and modelling;
* wind turbine design standards;
* offshore wind energy;
* special purpose applications, such as energy storage and fuel production.
Fifty additional homework problems and a new appendix on data processing make this comprehensive edition perfect for engineering students.
This book offers a complete examination of one of the most promising sources of renewable energy and is a great introduction to this cross-disciplinary field for practising engineers.
"provides a wealth of information and is an excellent reference book for people interested in the subject of wind energy." (IEEE Power & Energy Magazine, November/December 2003)
"deserves a place in the library of every university and college where renewable energy is taught." (The International Journal of Electrical Engineering Education, Vol.41, No.2 April 2004)
"a very comprehensive and well-organized treatment of the current status of wind power." (Choice, Vol. 40, No. 4, December 2002)
Fully revised, Wind Energy Explained, 2nd edition, builds on the highly successful 1st edition - now the leading textbook for wind energy degree courses. With two completely new chapters covering the fundamentals of Data Collection and Analysis and Computer codes and Wind Turbine Design and Testing, Manwell et al draw on substantial practical experience to provide a highly accessible introduction to the cross-disciplinary field of wind engineering. After an introductory chapter covering the wind turbine's history and modern structures, there are clear chapter headings giving a comprehensive overview of wind characteristics, aerodynamics, mechanics and electronics, sitting, and economical and environmental assessments. New sections have been added on the aerodynamics of vertical axis wind turbines, turbine testing, electrical grid-related issues and current and future applications of wind turbines.
