1. 1. Impact of Wind Farm Control Technologies on Wind Turbine Reliability

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Elektricitetslära

   Author : Julia Walgern; [2019]
   Keywords : Offshore wind farm; wind turbine yaw control; operation and maintenance; reliability; wake redirection control; closed-loop control; active wake steering control; O M simulation tool;

   Abstract : Cost efficient operation and maintenance strategies are crucial for reducing cost of wind energy. Since the regime change from feed-in tariffs to an auction-based bidding system for capacity in most European wind projects, levelized cost of energy is challenged constantly. READ MORE

3. 2. Quantifying the Shadow Effect between Offshore Wind Farms with Idealized Mesoscale Models and Observed Wind Data

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : David Werner; [2016]
   Keywords : Shadow effect; offshore wakes; atmospheric stability; analog ensemble; wake forecasting; idealized mesoscale modeling; Weather Research Forecast WRF model; downscaling; North Sea; Princes Amalia; Egmond aan Zee;

   Abstract : Two post processing methods for quantifying the shadow effect of the offshore wind farm Princes Amalia (PA) onto Egmond aan Zee (OWEZ) wind farm are analyzed and benchmarked. The first method is the author’s proposed shadow effect determination method (SEDM), which quantifies an offshore wind farm’s shadow effect based on mesoscale WRF (Weather Research Forecast) idealized modeling and the observed frequency of the analyzed site’s wind conditions.
