  • Q2:Scenario, Assignment Brief and Guidance: Scenario: You are an engineer working on a wind turbine "green energy" project for BCP City Council. Their wind turbine blades are not lasting as long as predicted, and in-service problems do not match predicted life from laboratory test results. You have been tasked with reviewing and evaluating a number of possible materials for the improved manufacture of wind turbine blades, so that they last longer and are more reliable. Blades have failed in the past because of a build-up of electromagnetic charge, excessive heat, corrosion, mechanical strain and failure. Assignment Brief:/nAssignment Brief: Activity 1: Some wind turbine blades have cracked, failed or twisted (reduced 'angle of attack' and hence performance) in-service in much shorter times than predicted. Using the data from your laboratory tests, prepare and present a report that compares and contrasts the following: • torsion test results of four materials (two metallic & two non-metallic) against theoretical results (you may use the theoretical data from APPENDIX 1: Material Shear Modulus Data) • beam deflection test results of four materials (two metallic & two non-metallic) against theoretical results (you may use the theoretical data from APPENDIX 2: Modulus of Elasticity Material Data) Evaluate any differences and suggest why real-world & laboratory test results for wind turbine blades could differ from theoretical data. NOTE: Include evidence, photos and results of your laboratory tests in your report. So that your audience can understand the context of your report, you will need to describe how the structures of the different materials relate to their properties. You will also need to refer to the types of degradation that are most common in the four materials, and how relevant that is to the wind turbine blade application. Use citation/references using the Harvard referencing system where relevant. Show and explain any formulae used and calculations.See Answer
  • Q3:Activity 2: Some failures in service were caused by a build-up of static electricity (due to electromagnetic hysteresis) and other failures by ther generation of heat (due to elastic hysteresis). Review both types of hysteresis for the materials in activity 1, discussing the level of risk for the above-mentioned failures and particularly for the conditions in service of wind turbine blades.

  • Q10:Question 11 Based on the data presented in both of the PV 2014 IEA roadmap and the STE 2014 IEA roadmap, which solar technology has greater solar market share? O STE is leading the global solar market and PV comes as second place O PV has greater global solar market share than STE O CPV is leading the global solar market The market of the solar technologies is equally split Question 12 Based on Question 11, what is the main reason that one technology outnumbered the other? 1 pts O STE is much simpler technology that uses mirrors and with larger plants it makes economical sense to be leading the solar market with cheaper initial cost O PV prices are going down and the development of new CSP still cannot compete with the low PV prices O CPV generates more per unit area power and it occupies less land space which makes it more economical choice to outnumber PV technology O Since the market is equally shared, that indicates that the prices are all the same for STE, CPV, and PV 1 ptsSee Answer
