Numerically Estimated Areal Distribution of the Wind Field for the Cape Blanco Area of Oregon.
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5987844
This report presents the numerical wind estimates in the Cape Blanco area of Oregon. We applied an existing two-dimensional numerical wind code developed by UIC to the Cape Blanco area. The wind field was simulated under two wind flow conditions, i.e., the southerly seasonal wind in the winter and the northerly seasonal wind in the summer. Also we applied the wind code to estimate the wind field simulating a specific sub-area within the Cape Blanco area, cleared of trees for the aforementioned two flow conditions. The wind flow simulation for the specific sub-area cleared of trees was conducted to investigate the effect of removing vegetation on the areal distribution of wind flow patterns and speed in potential wind turbine farm areas. 19 figs.
