A Context-Aware Oil Debris-Based Health Indicator for Wind Turbine Gearbox Condition Monitoring
López de Calle Etxabe, Kerman; Ferreiro, Susana; Roldán Paraponiaris, Constantino Gregorio; Ulacia Manterola, Alain (MDPI, 2019-09-02)One of the greatest challenges of optimising the correct operation of wind turbines is detecting the health status of their core components, such as gearboxes in particular. Gearbox monitoring is a widely studied topic in ... -
Calibration of Reanalysis Data against Wind Measurements for Energy Production Estimation of Building Integrated Savonius-Type Wind Turbine
González Arceo, Andoni; Zirion Martínez de Musitu, Maitane; Ulacia Manterola, Alain; Del Rio Rodríguez , Mario; García, Oscar (MDPI, 2020-12-17)In this work, a cost-effective wind resource method specifically developed for the ROSEO-BIWT (Building Integrated Wind Turbine) and other Building Integrated Wind Turbines is presented. It predicts the wind speed and ... -
Electricity production, capacity factor, and plant efficiency index at the Mutriku wave farm (2014–2016)
Ibarra Berastegi, Gabriel; Sáenz Aguirre, Jon; Ulacia Manterola, Alain; Serras Malillos, Paula; Esnaola Aldanondo, Ganix; García-Soto, Carlos (Elsevier, 2018-01-01)
Mutriku has recently become the first commercial wave farm to release its operating data. The plant has 14 OWC operating turbines, and this study has conducted an analysis of hourly data corresponding to the 2014–2016 ... -
Historical Evolution of theWave Resource and Energy Production off the Chilean Coast over the 20th Century
Ulacia Manterola, Alain; Peñalba Retes, Markel; Rabanal, Arkaitz; Ibarra Berastegi, Gabriel; Ringwood, John D.; Sáenz Aguirre, Jon(MDPI, 2018-09)
The wave energy resource in the Chilean coast shows particularly profitable characteristics for wave energy production, with relatively high mean wave power and low inter-annual resource variability. This combination is ... -
MIDAS: A Benchmarking Multi-Criteria Method for the Identification of Defective Anemometers in Wind Farms
Rabanal, Arkaitz; Ulacia Manterola, Alain; Ibarra Berastegi, Gabriel; Sáenz Aguirre, Jon; Elosegui, Unai (MDPI, 2018-12-22)
A novel multi-criteria methodology for the identification of defective anemometers is shown in this paper with a benchmarking approach: it is called MIDAS: multi-technique identification of defective anemometers. The ... -
Pitch Angle Misalignment Correction Based on Benchmarking and Laser Scanner Measurement in Wind Farms
Elosegui, Unai; Egaña, Igor; Ulacia Manterola, Alain; Ibarra Berastegi, Gabriel (MDPI, 2018-12-01)In addition to human error, manufacturing tolerances for blades and hubs cause pitch angle misalignment in wind turbines. As a consequence, a significant number of turbines used by existing wind farms experience power ... -
Using 3DVAR data assimilation to measure offshore wind energy potential at different turbine heights in the West Mediterranean
Ulacia Manterola, Alain; Sáenz Aguirre, Jon; Ibarra Berastegi, Gabriel; González Rojí, Santos José; Carreno Madinabeitia, Sheila (Elsevier, 2017-09-19)
In this article, offshore wind energy potential is measured around the Iberian Mediterranean coast and the Balearic Islands using the WRF meteorological model without 3DVAR data assimilation (the N simulation) and with ...
