Software Implementation of Van der Hoven Spectrum

To implement the Van der Hoven spectrum a number of points were sampled from the Van
der Hoven curve. These samples are as

Wind speed generation

The wind speeds were generated from the above spectrum by implementing the following
equation in a Simulink model.
1
Ai =
√ [ s ( ω ) + S vv ( ωi+1 ) ] ( ωi+1−ωi )
2 vv i

N
v t= A 0+ ∑ A i cos ( ωt +φi )
i=1

The above equations were implemented by a Simulink model which is shown below.

The block named ch contained the values of the frequency read from the Van der Hoven
spectrum. The block named ch1 contains all the values of ch with the last value deleted and a
zero inserted at the beginning. The lookup table for Van der Hoven spectrum is used to get
the corresponding power spectrum density of wind for each frequency. The block phi
generates a vector of random values from –π to +π which is used as phase φ i corresponding to
each frequency component. The average wind speed used is 4.5 m/s
speed

time
