  1. 21. Investigating the influence of farm layout on the energy production of simple wind park configurations

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Sercan Uysal; [2014]
    Keywords : renewable energy; wind energy; wind turbines; wake effect; wake loss; wind farm; wake models; windfarmer; layout optimization;

    Abstract : The interaction between wind turbines in simple wind farm layouts is investigated with the purpose of observing the influence of wake loss phenomenon on the energy production of downwind turbines. Following an intensive exploration stage about wind farm aerodynamics and wake modeling subjects, several tests cases are designed to represent various wind farm configurations, consisting of different number of wind turbines.

  2. 22. An Assessment of the Discrepancy Between Operational Assessment and Wind Resource Assessment for a Wind Farm in Ireland

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Johnny Gallagher; [2014]
    Keywords : Wind Resource Assessment; WindSim; WindPro; WAsP; Wind Energy; CFD;

    Abstract : An accurate wind resource assessment (WRA) is crucial in energy prediction as the power is directly proportional to the wind speed cubed. This thesis analyses the discrepancy between operational assessment and WRA for a wind farm located on a moderately complex terrain in Ireland. READ MORE

  3. 23. Comparison of optimization for non linear and linear wind resource grids

    University essay from Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Ion Dragoi; [2013]
    Keywords : Wind resource grid; Flat terrain; Boundary layer; Wind; WAsP; WindSim; WindPRO; Optimization; Linear and Nonlinear wind resources grid.;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to assess how the configuration of linear and non-linearwind resource grids impacts the optimization.Three different software tools are used for this study: WAsP (linear model) includedin WindPRO, and WindSim (a non-linear model) - a CFD tool, and WindPRO forthe optimization.
