Introduction In past posts, an opensource programme for simulation of wind turbines and a limited wind farm configuration was covered. It is called OpenFAST. A nice programme it is; however, it does not have an interactive user interface. Introduced here is QBlade which has similar models of wind turbines as OpenFAST as a free programme… Read More Part 1 – QBlade Wind Turbine Simulation Software with GUI
Introduction With the rapidly evolving field of renewable energy and software engineering, presented here is a Python backed opensource programme for simulating a wind farm. It is called PyWake. Existing approaches for simulation of a wind turbine utilising hand calculations, opensource software and paid software are of common application. However, for wind farm design, in… Read More PyWake – Wind Farm Design and Simulation Programme
Rigid pavement or concrete slabs on grade (on the ground) serve several purposes. They may be used to prevent growth of vegetation in a residential or public location, it may be used as surfacing for industrial facilities for equipment and vehicles, it may also be used for highway construction. The strength and durability features of… Read More Reinforcement Categories for Rigid Pavement and Ground Slab
Presented here is the online course for the book titled Onshore Structural Design Step by Step Calculations. In previous posts, an overview of this field of civil engineering has been described, while computer aided video tutorials have been provided. These were however not done in details. In this online course, 4 of the 7 aspects… Read More Udemy Online Course – Onshore Structural Design Step by Step Calculations
A simple application which aids the modeling of wind turbine blades is presented here in. BladeComp, a demo programme with dynamic functionality. With this application, one is able to generate a blade, load it, mesh it and export to a finite element analysis software to complete the process. See also:
