The
Galion LiDAR, distributed by SgurrEnergy, has been optimised for
collecting data for wind power applications.
The all-sky scanning capability enables many more data collection
opportunities than VAD scanning alone. |
|
|
|
|
|
An
all-sky scanning
capability gives data capture flexibility and more methods of
measuring wind speed, turbulence, complex flow, turbine wake
interaction etc. etc. |
|
The Galion undergoing Riso
certification from January to May 2009
|
 Increased
wind analysis options with more scanning options:
Doppler
beam swing,
Vector,
RHI,
PPI,
VAD,
Arc scans.
New Wake
monitoring opportunities from full scanner control:
Staring,
User generated arbitrary scan files.

Results from the Risų mast
comparison. The LiDAR data was not internally filtered to
remove any data from the test. Some filtering was performed by Risų
to remove data during wind conditions where 'shadowing' for
the fixed mast anemometers was likely.
Galion
wind lidar has been
independently tested at Risų DTU in Denmark. The executive
summary is available for download at: Galion
lidar testing Exec Summary (PDF, 126kb). To request the full

Left. A Galion
system with SgurrEnergy PowerPack was deployed during one
of the most severe winters in the UK for over 25 years.
The system was un-attended throughout the deployment. |
