A review of the modeling approaches of the lightning M-component with special attention to their current and electric field characteristics

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Carlo Alberto Nucci, Qi Li

In this paper, we present the characteristics of current, electric fields and modeling approaches of lightning M-component mode of charge transfer. We consider both the classical M-components (occurring after return strokes) and M-component-type ICC (Initi ...

Computation of the attenuation function of the lightning return-stroke current from electromagnetic fields measured in a short-duration time-window, Part I: Theoretical investigation

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein

In a recent paper, a procedure to reconstruct the attenuation function of a return-stroke current from the simultaneous measurements of the channel-base current and the radiated electromagnetic fields was presented. One of the assumptions of the whole fram ...

Exact Expressions for Lightning Electromagnetic Fields: Application to the Rusck Field-To-Transmission Line Coupling Model

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein

An exact analytical expression for the electric field of the return stroke as excited by a propagating step current source is derived in this paper. This expression could be advantageously used to evaluate the disturbances caused by lightning on overhead l ...

Dynamic stall characterisation and control for vertical-axis wind turbines

Sébastien Le Fouest

According to the International Energy Agency, the global net-zero emissions objective requires the installed wind power capacity to increase 11-fold between 2020 and 2050. The scientific community has recently voiced concerns about the logistic feasibility ...

A wind tunnel study on cyclic yaw control: Power performance and wake characteristics

Fernando Porté Agel, Arslan Salim Dar, Guiyue Duan

In this study, wind-tunnel experiments are used to investigate cyclic yaw control as a wake mitigation strategy aiming to improve wind farm power production. The control strategy is applied to a single wind turbine and a wind farm comprising of a column of ...

Fast ion generation with ICRF waves and beams in the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator

Mike Machielsen

The largest operating stellarator, Wendelstein 7-X, is of the quasi-isodynamic type. For this design to scale up to a fusion reactor, several criteria must be met, one of them being good fast ion confinement. The latter still has to be tested experimentall ...

Characterization of wind turbine flow through nacelle-mounted lidars: a review

Fernando Porté Agel, Peter Andreas Brugger

This article provides a comprehensive review of the most recent advances in the planning, execution, and analysis of inflow and wake measurements from nacelle-mounted wind Doppler lidars. Lidars installed on top of wind turbines provide a holistic view of ...
