"Fully revised and updated, now covering offshore wind turbines, this is a comprehensive
description of the mechanical, electrical, aerodynamic, meteorological and planning
aspects of modern wind turbines. Fully revised and updated, this second edition addresses
key developments in the wind technology since the first edition, now the leading reference
on the subject, was published in 2001. A completely new chapter focuses on offshore
wind turbines and wind farms. After a brief introduction, the authors discuss the
wind resource. Particular reference is made to wind turbulence due to its importance
in wind turbine design. A discussion on the basis of the aerodynamics of horizontal
axis wind turbines follows, incorporating general momentum theory and dynamic stall,
and an analysis of their performance. The book goes on to assess the requirements
for establishing design loads, updating national and international standards and revising
dynamic analysis codes where necessary. Burton et al. also set out the various design
options for horizontal axis wind turbines, discussing variable speed operation and
reviewing alternative blade materials and their properties. They explain the functions
of the wind turbine controller and describe some of the possible analysis techniques.
The text also reviews the development of wind energy projects with particular emphasis
on environmental impact, and considers how wind turbines interact with the electrical
power system. The 1st edition is the leading reference for wind energy researchers
and practitioners worldwide. This edition has 25% new material, including a new chapter
covering offshore wind turbines and wind farms. Revises the chapter on the aerodynamics
of horizontal axis wind turbines to include new sections on general momentum theory,
lifting line theory and dynamic stall. Comprehensively covers advances in wind turbine
technology, featuring updated chapters on wind resource, design and design loads,
and reviews wind farms and the development of wind energy projects. Provides data
on Standards and National Targets on a companion website." ; "The text also reviews
