Wind Energy: Data Acquisition and Real-Time Analysis.

摘要

Based on the need for a more accurate data acquisition system, a proposal was submitted by the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Colorado State University (CSU) to the Department of Energy for the development of a minicomputer-based system. One attractive feature of this approach is that a curve fit of data is available in real time. Also, because the system is fairly small in physical dimensions it can be easily carried and installed as a portable unit. The project consisted of two phases: development of the algorithm for data analysis and provision of the software for the Hewlett Packard HP9845T minicomputer; and testing of the algorithm on a Darrieus wind turbine generator located at the Colorado State University dairy farm.
