Infrared thermography of turbulence patterns of operational wind turbine rotor blades supported with high-resolution photography: KI-VISIR Dataset

<h2>Abstract</h2> <p><span>With increasing wind energy capacity and installation of wind turbines, new inspection techniques are being explored to examine wind turbine rotor blades, especially during operation. A common result of surface damage phenomena (such as leading-edge erosion) is the premature transition of laminar to turbulent flow on the surface of rotor blades. In the KI-VISIR (K&uuml;nstliche Intelligenz Visuell und Infrarot Thermografie &ndash; Artificial Intelligence-Visual and Infrared Thermography) project, infrared thermography is used as an inspection tool to capture so-called thermal turbulence patterns (TTP) that result from such surface contamination or damage. To compliment the thermographic inspections, high-resolution photography is performed to visualise, in detail, the sites where these turbulence patterns initiate. A convolutional neural network (CNN) was developed and used to detect and localise the turbulence patterns. A unique dataset combining the thermograms and visual images of operational wind turbine rotor blades has been provided, along with the simplified annotations for the turbulence patterns. Additional tools are available to allow users to use the data requiring only basic Python programming skills.</span></p>

Supplementary material for "In-flight reactions of nocturnally migrating birds to winds"

<p><strong>Abstract</strong></p> <p>Available knowledge on in-flight reactions of nocturnal bird migrants to winds is reviewed, with emphasis on the challenging topographical and meteorological conditions in Western Europe, and differences from the situation in North America discussed. Conclusions drawn are used for a new approach: using individual radar tracks of nocturnal migrants (mainly passerines) as well as winds measured at their flight altitudes, we defined the basic direction (BD=average flight direction of all migrants tracked under negligible wind influence) as a reference. For two altitudinal zones above a radar site near Nuremberg, we modelled the deviations of tracks and headings from BD for increasing wind from six 60&deg; sectors. A comparison of birds&rsquo; air speeds Va with winds from four 90&deg;-sectors confirmed that Va increased with opposing winds from ~11 to 13 (14) m/s; a similar increase occurred with side winds. An expected, slight decrease of Va with increasing following winds was only indicated for high-flying, not for low-flying birds. A predicted increase in average Va due to decreasing air density with increasing height was not observed; possible explanations (birds climbing to high altitudes in following, but not in strong opposing winds) are discussed. Over the whole autumn migration season, headings were concentrated in a sector of &plusmn;30&deg; around 230&deg; in both altitudinal zones. Prevailing winds from 230 to 320&deg; (SW&ndash;NW, i.e. opposing from right) led to widely scattered tracks primarily between 190&deg; and 270&deg;, but additional ones in the SE sector (mainly 100&deg;&ndash;170&deg;). The analysis of tracks and headings relative to BD revealed the following features. (1) Overcompensation was frequently observed at low wind speeds (&lt;3 m/s); (2) under all wind conditions, but particularly with opposing winds and at low flight levels, tracks were widely scattered, including birds deviating more than 90&deg; from BD. (3) Under opposing and side winds from the right compensatory efforts led to partial drift compensation up to wind speeds of ~8&ndash;10 m/s. Because efforts to compensate drift dwindled with increasing wind speeds, birds were fully drifted. Many even shifted their heading to due south and, hence, overdrifted. (4) Opposing and side winds from the left induced partial compensation at low flight levels and full drift above 1500 m asl. (5) The lateral components of the rare and weak following winds led to tracks close to expected minimal drift (without important compensation needed). In general, migrants compensated less for deviations by wind force than expected. The tendency of birds to maintain headings close to BD under opposing winds was so strong that many individuals continued migration with minimal progress over ground or even with retrograde migration as an extreme. On the other hand, there was an omnipresent fraction of birds with tracks far from seasonally favourable directions, including reverse migration.</p>

Data for the paper « An all-Africa dataset of energy model "supply regions" for solar PV and wind power »

<p>This dataset contains data provided alongside the paper "An all-Africa dataset of energy model &ldquo;supply regions&rdquo; for solar PV and wind power" by Sterl et al. (2022).</p> <p>It concerns&nbsp;a novel representative subset of attractive sites for solar PV and onshore wind power for the entire African continent. We refer to these sites as &ldquo;Model Supply Regions&rdquo; (MSRs). This MSR dataset was created from an in-depth analysis of various existing datasets on resource potential, grid infrastructure, land use, topography and others (see Methods), and achieves hourly temporal resolution and kilometre-scale spatial resolution. This dataset fills an important research need by closing the gap between comprehensive datasets on African VRE potential (such as the Global Solar Atlas and Global Wind Atlas) on the one hand, and the input needed to run cost-optimisation models on the other. It also allows a detailed analysis of the trade-offs involved in exploiting excellent, but far-from-grid resources as compared to mediocre but more accessible resources, which is a crucial component of power systems planning to be elaborated for many African countries.</p> <p>Five separate datasets are included:</p> <p>Folder (1) provides shapefiles of each country's overall feasible area for developing solar and wind power projects, under the restrictions/criteria mentioned above and described in Sterl et al. (2022).</p> <p>Folder (2) provides the best 5% ("best" measured by expected LCOE, from lowest to highest, including grid and road extension costs; 5% measured in terms of coverage of a country's area) of each country's solar and wind development potential, including hourly time series for model input.</p> <p>Folder (3) provides the corresponding shapefiles.</p> <p>Folder (4) provides simplified/aggregated results in terms of MSR clusters (see Sterl et al. 2022 for details), alongside hourly time series based on the meteorological year 2018. The amount of clusters was chosen to be 2, 5 or 10 depending on country size.</p> <p>Folder (5) provides PDF-file maps at the country level, showing resource strength and clustering outcomes by MSR (post-screening).</p> <p>Explanations of the headers in any spreadsheet files are provided in the Supplementary Information of Sterl et al. (2022).</p> <p>Countries/territories included in the dataset:&nbsp;</p> <p>Algeria<br>Angola<br>Benin<br>Botswana<br>Burkina Faso<br>Burundi<br>Cameroon<br>Central African Republic<br>Chad<br>Congo Republic<br>Democratic Republic of the Congo<br>Djibouti<br>Egypt<br>Equatorial Guinea<br>Eritrea<br>Eswatini<br>Ethiopia<br>Gabon<br>The Gambia<br>Ghana<br>Guinea<br>Guin&eacute;-Bissau<br>C&ocirc;te d'Ivoire<br>Kenya<br>Lesotho<br>Liberia<br>Libya<br>Madagascar<br>Malawi<br>Mali<br>Mauritania<br>Morocco<br>Mozambique<br>Namibia<br>Niger<br>Nigeria<br>Rwanda<br>Senegal<br>Sierra Leone<br>Somalia<br>South Africa<br>South Sudan<br>Sudan<br>Togo<br>Tunisia<br>Uganda<br>Tanzania<br>Zambia<br>Zimbabwe</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>References</strong></p> <p>Sterl, S., Hussain, B., Miketa, A.&nbsp;<em>et al.</em>&nbsp;An all-Africa dataset of energy model &ldquo;supply regions&rdquo; for solar photovoltaic and wind power.&nbsp;<em>Sci Data</em>&nbsp;<strong>9</strong>, 664 (2022). <span><a href="https://doi.org/10.1038/s41597-022-01786-5">https://doi.org/10.1038/s41597-022-01786-5</a></span></p> <p><strong>See also</strong></p> <p>Sterl, S.

AIMS - Earth Observation Satellite Data of Wave and Wind in the Tyrrhenian Sea

<p>This dataset is part of the AIMS project (Artificial Intelligence to Monitor our Seas), which has the vision to develop and validate novel Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms to unlock the true potential of remote monitoring and enable a faster transition to a climate neutral society and economy: the AI algorithms will leverage the advantages of usual monitoring methodologies of the features of waves and offshore wind, and eventually overcome their intrinsic limitations. The value and resolution of sparse measurements of satellites and unevenly-distributed in-situ instruments will be increased, hence leading to a significant reduction of the cost and execution time of&nbsp;data collection, ultimately making knowledge wider and more accessible.</p> <p>In particular, this dataset aggregates earth observation satellite data from 10 different satellites, measureing the significant wave height and the wind speed at 10 meters above sea leavel in the Tyrrhenian Sea, from January 2021 to May 2024.</p>

Wall Resolved Fluid-Structure Interaction Numerical Simulation of a Modern Wind Turbine Blade

<p>Wall-resolved fluid-structure interaction (FSI) numerical simulations of the NREL 5 MW wind turbine blade<br> are compared using two FSI approaches. The first method is based on high-fidelity Nektar++/SHARPy FSI framework,<br> where the fluid governing equations are solved using high-order spectral/hp element method and the turbulent flow is<br> resolved using Large Eddy Simulation (LES) on thick strips, while large-deformation dynamics of the structure are mod-<br> elled using a geometrically exact nonlinear composite beam finite-element model. Thick strip method for the fluid reduces<br> the computational cost by considering a series of smaller domains, each of which has a finite thickness in the spanwise<br> direction. Hence, the overall flow over the blade is treated with a sectional approach, where in each of these sections,<br> strips, the 3D flow is reconstructed locally. Tip-loss correction is used to compensate for the sectional approach over the<br> blade. The second FSI approach is based on OpenFoam/Calculix coupling, where the second-order unstructured finite<br> volume method approach is used for solving the three-dimensional flow equations and the flow turbulence is captured us-<br> ing the k-&omega; SST model. The structural dynamics are modeled via second-order finite element method using standard solid<br> elements. Effects of the solution fidelity on the prediction of aerodynamic forces as well as on the full three-dimensional<br> flow modelling over the blade versus sectional representation of flow over the blade while incorporating the local three-<br> dimensionality in each section and tip-correction are discussed. Further, significance of two approaches on modelling<br> the slender blade, one using the beam mode and the other utilizing the full 3D solution of structure is addressed. Finally,<br> assessment of computational cost and scalability of the two approaches are presented and discussed.</p>

We invite you to join us in exploring this precursor to a digital twin of the earth!</p> <p>The NR simulations reveal unprecedented detail of the earth&rsquo;s atmosphere [1], and the then outgoing Editor-in-Chief of AGU JAMES commended the project as one of &ldquo;stunning ambitions,&rdquo; enabled by computational capacity at scale [2]. The project also won the <em>2020 HPCwire Readers Choice Award </em>for Best Use of HPC in Physical Sciences.&nbsp;</p> <p>A set of two NR seasonal simulations have been completed, one corresponding to the northern hemispheric winter months (NDJF) and the other for the North Atlantic tropical cyclone season (ASO). The project used the Summit supercomputer at the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility (OLCF). The simulations were facilitated with an INCITE award from the US Department of Energy Office of Science.&nbsp;</p> <p>For the first seasonal run of four months (NDJF), the hydrostatic IFS model was initialized at 00Z on 1 November 2018. The NR for the TC season (AS) was initialized at 00Z on 1 August 2019. The NR simulations were constrained only by sea surface temperatures (SST) at the lower boundary. The IFS output was saved every 3 hours.</p> <p>After feedback and interest from the scientific community, the simulations were rerun for four specific extreme events, with output every 15 minutes. The special cases include a tropical cycle and three severe storm events over the continental USA.</p> <p><strong>NR Data for visualizing winds</strong></p> <p>A small subset from the 1-km IFS NR collection is make available for #VisMetHack22.

<p>This is data set includes Doppler wind lidar quantities which were calculated from&nbsp;measurements performed between 2016&nbsp;and 2020&nbsp;at&nbsp;<em>Andalusian Global Observatory of the Atmosphere</em>, AGORA, in particular, at the UGR station, Andalusian Institute for Earth System Research (IISTA-CEAMA) in Granada, Spain&nbsp;(37.16&ordm;N, 3.61&ordm;W, 680 m a.s.l.).</p> <p>The system is a Doppler lidar Stream Line (Halo Photonics), which&nbsp;is part of ACTRIS-Cloudnet (Illingworth et al., 2007). The system laser emits at 1.5 &mu;m and the detector is&nbsp;heterodyne using fiber-optic technology. The measurements for this data set consisted of&nbsp;conical scans with constant elevation of 75&deg; and 12 equidistant azimuth points performed every 10 min. A more detailed description of the instrument can be found in (Ortiz-Amezcua et al., 2022)</p>

SuperDARN meteor wind data for January 2019

<p>SuperDARN meteor wind data</p> <p>*.m.* - meridional</p> <p>*.z.*&nbsp; - zonal</p> <p>X/Y are in radar coordinates - most users can disregard.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Supported by NSF&nbsp;#1934973</p> <p>Collaborative Research: Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) Operations, Research and Community Support</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>SuperDARN is an international collaboration operating high frequency (HF) radars deployed in the northern and southern hemispheres to measure ionospheric plasma circulation. Each partner institution secures funding and manages operations for their own facilities. The continued availability of SuperDARN data depends on the proper acknowledgment of data by its users. Guidelines for data acknowledgment are as follows:</p> <p>When data from an individual radar or radars are used, users must contact the principal investigator(s) of those radar(s) to obtain the appropriate acknowledgement information and to offer collaboration, where appropriate. Contact information is available in the README file for this collection.</p> <p>For all usage of SuperDARN data, users are asked to include the following standard acknowledgment text: &ldquo;The authors acknowledge the use of SuperDARN data. SuperDARN is a collection of radars funded by national scientific funding agencies of Australia, Canada, China, France, Italy, Japan, Norway, South Africa, United Kingdom and the United States of America.&rdquo;</p> <p>While SuperDARN has an open data use policy, i.e., prior permission to access and analyse the data is not required, the data user is strongly encouraged to establish early contact with any Principal Investigator whose data are involved in the project to discuss the intended usage and collaboration. Data can be subject to limitations that are not immediately evident to users. In addition, some data are embargoed for use by designated Principal Investigators for a period of one year. SuperDARN and the organizations that contributed data must be acknowledged in all reports and publications that use SuperDARN data.</p> <p>The SuperDARN Executive Council (see list in the README) must be notified before data are redistributed through another database. The data are not to be used for commercial purposes. If you have any questions about appropriate use of these data, contact any SuperDARN Principal Investigator.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

Data depository - "Quantifying the effect of wind on volcanic plumes: implications for plume modelling"

<p>This depository contains all data to understand, evaluate, and build upon the research reported in the manuscript: &quot;Quantifying the effect of wind on volcanic plumes: implications for plume modelling&quot;, submitted to Journal of Geophysical Research.</p> <p><strong>Abstract</strong></p> <p>The considerable effects that wind can have on estimates of mass eruption rates (MERs) in explosive eruptions based on volcanic plume height are well known but difficult to quantify rigorously. Many explicitly wind-affected plume models have the additional difficulty that they require the use of centerline heights of bent-over plumes, a parameter not easily obtained directly from observational data. We tested two such models by using the time series of varying plume heights and wind speeds of the 2010 Eyjafjallaj&ouml;kull eruption. The mapped fallout and photos taken during this eruption allow us to estimate the plume geometry and to empirically constrain input parameters for the two models tested. Two strategies are presented to correct the difference in maximum plume height and centerline height: (i) based on plume radius, and (ii) by using the plume type parameter &prod;, which quantifies the relative influence of buoyancy and cross-wind on the plume dynamics, to discriminate weak, intermediate and strong plumes. The results indicate that it may be more appropriate to classify plumes as either wind-dominated, intermediate or buoyancy-dominated, where the relative effects of both wind and MER define the type. The analysis of the Eyjafjallaj&ouml;kull data shows that the MER estimates from both models are considerably improved when a plume-type dependent centreline-correction is applied and the wind entrainment coefficient <em>&beta;</em> is refined. For this particular eruption, we find that the best value for <em>&beta;</em> lies between 0.22 and 0.34, unlike previous suggestions that set this parameter to 0.50.</p>
