Wind velocity measurements were taken using a Leosphere Windcube LIDAR system, which operates as a pulsed laser Doppler anemometer. Here we report on first results, which show typical characteristics of atmospheric wind velocities. 1. Introduction Measurements of the atmospheric wind field are of essential relevance for wind energy utilization. Different technologies are in use in this field, among them LIDAR (LIght Detection And Ranging) systems. This measurement principle is currently not as well established for wind velocity measurements as other techniques, such as cup or ultrasound anemometers. Nevertheless, the LIDAR technology offers some advantages over more traditional methods, which shall as well as possible drawbacks be investigated in the ongoing research project Further development of LIDAR wind measuring techniques for the offshore test field funded by the German Federal Environment Ministry. For these purposes we use a Leosphere Windcube LIDAR system, which operates as a pulsed laser Doppler anemometer. A laser beam of 1.54 μm wavelength takes measurements of the wind speed in beamwise direction. To obtain the three-dimensinal wind vector, the beam is inclined by 30 from vertical direction and measurements are taken under four different azimuth angles (see figure 1). As the laser can take measurements, in our case, every 1.5 s, a new wind vector can be derived from the four most recent successive measurements at the same frequency. The length of the laser pulses of about 26 m defines the vertical extension of the measurement volume. As most significant advantages, a LIDAR system can take measurements in large heights (up to about 200 m in our case) from ground level, without the need of a metmast. Additionally, the principle of a pulsed laser Doppler anemometer allows for simultaneous measurements in several height levels (up to ten for the Leosphere Windcube). The system is mobile and can be moved to different locations with only little effort, compared to a metmast. c 2008 IOP Publishing Ltd 1

The three-dimensional wind velocity vector is then derived from four successive measurements. Up to ten different height levels can be measured simultaneously. v h [m/s] t [s] Figure 2.

Additionally the ten minute mean values μ and the intervals given by μ ± σ, where σ denotes the standard deviation of a ten minute interval, are indicated by grey lines. 2. Wind field characterisation Atmospheric wind fields are complex structures, fluctuating in time as well as in space. In this paper we will concentrate on the horizontal wind speed magnitude v h as a frequently used quantity for wind field description. As a simple approach to wind field characterisation, the ten minute mean value of the horizontal wind speed magnitude, μ = v h 10 min, is widely used together with the standard deviation σ with respect to the same time interval, compare figure 2. These quantities are one-point statistics and thus do not reflect the succession of velocity values. Fluctuations on time scales below ten minutes are important characteristics of the wind field, e.g., they determine fast load changes on wind turbines. To characterize fluctuations of v h, two-point statistics have to be used. Most prominent are the auto-correlation function v h (t + τ)v h (t) or the power spectral density, which can under some conditions be understood as the Fourier transform of the auto-correlation function. As these quantities are constructed from mean square values, they reflect second-order statistics, 2

The solid line denotes the fit of a Weibull distribution to the data. and provide information about the second moments of the fluctuations. A more general approach to two-point (or fluctuation) statistics is the investigation of wind speed increments δv h (t, τ) =v h (t + τ) v h (t). (1) The moments δv h (τ) k of these increments are called structure functions in turbulence research and reflect the fluctuation statistics of order k. It is easy to see that the second-order structure function is directly related to the auto-correlation function and thus also to the power spectral density. Besides the moments, also the probability density functions (PDFs) p(δv h )ofδv h can be investigated, which reflect the fluctuation statistics of all orders. In [1] it has been shown that the PDFs of atmospheric wind speed increments differ significantly both from Gaussian distributions on the one hand and from PDFs measured in laboratory turbulence experiments on the other hand. Furthermore, in [2] a simple stochastic model was presented, reproducing characteristic properties of different locations, such as offshore sites or onshore sites in different terrain. In this contribution we want analyse the first LIDAR measurements in the light of these publications. 3. Measurement data First measurements were taken with the Leosphere Windcube device located on the roof of the Institute of Aircraft Design at the university of Stuttgart. The wind velocity was measured at ten height levels between 40 and 220 m. Under these conditions the device achieved a sampling frequency of 0.66 Hz, and nine files of continuous twelve-hour measurements could be recorded, resulting in about samples per height level. Invalid measurements occured from time to time, especially in large heights. According to the manufacturer these cases are caused by to too low aerosol concentration in the air, which leads to a low SNR. The Windcube is adjusted to evaluate laser pulses per measurement and accept values at an SNR of 22 db or better [3]. For the analysis therefore only complete, uninterrupted ten-minute intervals were selected. A section of a recorded time series of the horizontal wind speed v h in 120 m height is presented in figure 2, together with the mean values μ and standard deviations σ of each ten minute interval. 3

Scales τ are 1.5, 4.5, 15, 48, and 162 s from top to bottom, and fits according to [2] are shown as solid lines. PDFs are vertically shifted for clarity of presentation. Figure 6. PDFs of horizontal wind speed increments δv h (τ), conditioned on μ =(5.5 ± 0.5)m/s (symbols). Scales τ are chosen as in figure 5, and fits according to [1, 2] are shown as solid lines. 4. PDFs of horizontal wind speed The PDF of the ten minute mean values μ of the horizontal wind speed measured at 120 m height is shown in figure 3. In meteorology the assumption is well accepted that μ obeys a Weibull distribution for sufficiently long measurement periods [4]. Therefore a fit of a Weibull distribution to the data is added to the plot. It can be seen that in our case the Weibull distribution does not model the empirical distribution satisfyingly. As possible reasons, the measurement time of nine twelve-hour periods may have been too short, and the meteorological situations may not have been well-balanced. In figure 4 the empirical PDF of v h measured in the same height level is presented, again together with a fit of the Weibull distribution. Here the accordance is a little better, but still not good. While there are much more samples of v h than of μ, the same reasons for deviations have to be considered as before. 5. Increment PDFs of horizontal wind speed In figure 5 normalized PDFs of the horizontal wind speed increments δv h (τ), see equation (1), measured at 120 m height, are shown for different scales τ between 1.5 and 162 s. The shapes of these PDFs clearly show a peak around the mean value and so-called heavy tails. These heavy tails denote increased probability of extreme fluctuations δv h compared to Gaussian statistics. PDFs of this shape are called intermittent in turbulence research. It can also be seen from figure 5 that the shape of the PDFs changes only slightly with the scale τ, and does not converge to a Gaussian shape over a wide range of scales. This is a remarkable and characteristic feature of atmospheric wind data [1, 5, 6]. As wind speed increments on rather small scales τ 1 min can be interpreted as gusts, these statistics also mean an increased probablity of strong gusts, compared to a Gaussian distribution (cf. [1]). In reference [1] PDFs of δv h were also investigated after conditioning on a certain mean value. Here, we follow the same procedure and present in figure 6 the PDFs of δv h only for those ten minute intervals with μ =(5.5 ± 0.5)m/s. The same effect as in [1] can be seen also here: 4
5 the PDFs now obtain a pronounced intermittent shape only for the smallest scales τ, changing to a more Gaussian-like shape for large scales. The conditioning apparently leads to a similar situation as in laboratory turbulence experiments, where a well-prepared mean velocity assures a stationary flow. For increment PDFs of laboratory turbulence a description by Castaing s formula [7] is well established. It models the turbulent PDFs as a weighted superposition of Gaussian PDFs, depending mainly on the so-called form parameter λ. In figure 6, we have added fits according to Castaing s formula, which give a good representation of the empirical PDFs. As already stated, for atmospheric turbulence the situation is much more complex than for laboratory experiments. In [2] an explicit formula was developed which describes increment PDFs of atmospheric flows as a superposition of Castaing functions, according to the distribution of the ten minute mean values of the wind speed. We have added fits according to this formula to figure 5, which at least qualitatively agree well with the PDFs of the atmospheric wind speed increments. Both fitting procedures were performed following reference [2], including the simplified parameterizations mentioned there. For details of the procedure, the reader is kindly referred to the original article. The potential of both formulas for a rather simple description of atmospheric flows is confirmed by our data. Possible sources of deviations in figure 5 are the mentioned simplified parameter relations, as in [2]. In particular, it can be seen from figure 3 that the ten minute mean values of our measurements are not optimally described by a Weibull distribution, as assumed by our model. 6. Summary and outlook In this article we have evaluated first measurements of atmospheric wind velocities, taken by a Leosphere Windcube pulsed LIDAR system. For comparison and consistency with other publications, we concentrated here on the horizontal wind speed magnitudes v h. Despite the measurement period was rather short, our data show characteristic features of atmospheric flows. In particular these are the pronounced intermittent increment PDFs of v h on all observed time scales. These PDFs approach a behaviour as it is found for laboratory turbulence when only periods with similar mean wind speed μ are selected, and thus support the (simplified) picture of atmospheric wind fields as a superposition of turbulent flows with different mean velocities, cf. [1, 2]. Further investigations will focus on the spatial and temporal resolution and averaging effects of the Leosphere Windcube. As described in section 1 and figure 1, its principle of measurement uses a rather large spatial and temporal region of the wind field. Quantitative comparison to classical measurement systems, namely cup and ultrasound anemometers, will be of special practical relevance. An additional task in this research project will be to investigate the derivation of characteristic power curves of wind turbines using LIDAR wind speed measurements. Besides the standard procedure, we expect some advantages of a new method which considers the dynamics of the wind power conversion process [8, 9], combined with the flexibility and mobility of a LIDAR system.
