Wind energy is a rapidly growing and the demand for trained technicians is high. WIND TURBINE TECHNOLOGY, is a comprehensive and well illustrated book on the theory and operations of wind turbines that generate electricity for power companies. This book is written as an introduction to wind energy technology. It prepares readers for a career as wind energy technicians who are responsible for maintaining, servicing and troubleshooting turbines on wind farms.
This is an inclusive book that covers the main subjects associated with wind turbines. Dr. Hemami uses a practical, step-by-step manner with many examples and applications to help you to have a better understanding of the material. The book is divided into 17 progressive chapters. The book is divided into progressive sections, starting with fundamental subjects such as energy in the wind and effect of wind on a blade and continues onto more advanced materials such as grid connection and economics of wind turbines.
Ahmad Hemami received his BSc degree in mechanical engineering. He holds a PhD in system dynamics and control from the Department of Aeronautical and Mechanical Engineering, University of Salford, UK. Dr. Hemami has several years of industrial, academic and research experience. His expertise is in systems, robotics, control and automation, and wind energy. He has taught several undergraduate and graduate courses in mechanical engineering, supervised a number of MSc and PhD students at Concordia University and McGill University in Canada. Dr. Hemami has served as consultant for industry. The results of his analytical and experimental research on pertinent subjects have been presented in more than 100 journal and conference publications. His work is now focused on energy and environment.
