    摘要: Described is a device for measuring wind conditions during power kite activities. The device comprises an electronic processing unit, an anemometer, and a means of attachment to a power kite. The data from the anemometer is processed by the processing unit and stored locally or transmitted wirelessly to a secondary device (e.g. a smart phone or smart watch). The anemometer directly measures the apparent wind at the kite. In certain embodiments inclusion of an inertial measurement unit and a GPS unit provides a means of calculating the true wind by accounting for induced wind from kite and kiter motion respectively.

    摘要: The present subject matter is directed to systems and methods for detecting rotor asymmetry of a wind turbine. The method includes measuring wind condition at a location downwind of the rotor for a plurality of rotor positions. Another step includes storing the measured wind condition(s) in predetermined wind bins. The method also includes analyzing the stored wind conditions for each of the predetermined wind bins. If a particular wind bin reaches a certain threshold of captured data points, then the method includes determining a variance between each of the stored wind conditions for the predetermined wind bins that have reached the threshold, wherein a variance between any one of the measured wind conditions greater than a predetermined amount is indicative of rotor asymmetry.

    摘要: An emission monitoring system includes at least one gas analyzer for measuring a concentration of a first gas and a concentration of a second gas, a positioning system for determining the location of the at least one gas analyzer when the concentration of the first gas is measured. A method for monitoring emissions at an industrial site and a computer-implemented event detection system applies the steps of detecting the presence of a gas emission event based on a first detection ratio calculated from the measured concentration of the first gas, the measured concentration of the second gas, a background concentration of the first gas and a background concentration of the second gas.

    摘要: The present invention relates to metrological rotary devices, such as anemometers and the like. Specifically, the present invention relates to a mechanical coupling for the same, whereby an anemometer cup-rotor or like device, can be replaced without the use of a tool. The present invention seeks to provide a coupling device which makes a mechanical coupling between a first and a second member such that the locking together and release action is positive, without likelihood of failure, and can be conducted simply and quickly without the use of a tool. Further objects of the invention are to provide couplings in which a positive axial and rotational location of shaft as first member and mating bore in a second member are obtained which do not cause damage to either of the sliding surfaces when excessive force is applied, and which are capable of transmitting a torque, such couplings being suitable for attaching a rotor to an anemometer. In particular, the present invention provides a coupling arrangement for an anemometer rotating body comprising impellor cups, which impellor cups and rotating body are required for removable fitment, ideally without the use of tools.

    摘要: A bearing assembly for an anemometer configured to provide thrust and axial load protection and reduce exposure to potentially degradative debris and/or contaminants. The bearing assembly includes a first shaft and a second shaft and bearings, wherein the bearings are configured to rotate about at least the first shaft while enclosed within a portion of the second shaft. The second shaft is configured to isolate the bearings from any air flow through the anemometer and debris and/or contaminants carried therewith. The bearing assembly further includes a damping member configured to reduce forces imparted upon the bearings, thereby providing protection and preventing premature damage to the bearings from loads.
