Seasonal effects in the long-term correction of short-term wind measurements using reanalysis data [PDF]
Wind Energy Science, 2021 Measure–correlate–predict (MCP) approaches are often used to correct wind measurements to the long-term wind conditions on-site. This paper investigates systematic errors in MCP-based long-term corrections which occur if the measurement on-site covers ...

The Power Curve Working Group's assessment of wind turbine power performance prediction methods [PDF]
Wind Energy Science, 2020 Wind turbine power production deviates from the reference power curve in real-world atmospheric conditions. Correctly predicting turbine power performance requires models to be validated for a wide range of wind turbines using inflow in different ...

Wind inflow observation from load harmonics: initial steps towards a field validation [PDF]
Wind Energy Science, 2021 A previously published wind sensing method is applied to an experimental dataset obtained from a 3.5 MW turbine. The method is based on a load-wind model that correlates once-per-revolution blade load harmonics to rotor-equivalent shears and wind ...
