Optimization of Wind Farm Self-Discipline Interval and Energy Storage System Configuration
IEEE Access, 2020 The uncertain and stochastic output of the wind farm results in a lot of problems when it is connected to the power grid. In order to improve the wind power's friendship to the grid, the wind farm should has a certain self-discipline level. In this paper,

Comparison of wind farm control strategies under realistic offshore wind conditions: turbine quantities of interest [PDF]
Wind Energy ScienceWind farm flow control is a strategy to increase the efficiency and therefore lower the levelized cost of energy of a wind farm. This is done using turbine settings such as the yaw angle, blade pitch angles, or generator torque to manipulate the flow ...

A Calibration Procedure for an Analytical Wake Model Using Wind Farm Operational Data
Energies, 2020 Wind energy is one of the fastest growing renewable energy sources in the U.S. Wind turbine wakes change the flow field within wind farms and reduce power generation. Prior research has used experimental and computational methods to investigate and model

On wake modeling, wind-farm gradients and AEP predictions at the Anholt wind farm [PDF]
Wind Energy Science, 2017 Abstract. We investigate wake effects at the Anholt offshore wind farm in Denmark. We perform the analysis with three commonly-used wake models; two engineering approaches (the Park and G. C. Larsen models) and a linearized Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes approach (Fuga). From analysis of SCADA and mesoscale model simulations, we show that for westerly

What to expect from a greater geographic dispersion of wind farms? - A risk portfolio approach [PDF]
, 2007 The UK, like many other industrialised countries, is committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions under the Kyoto Protocol. To achieve this goal the UK is increasingly turning towards wind power as a source of emissions free energy.

Aviation, 2009 Wind is an increasingly important source of energy for the Slovak Republic. It is exploited by the use of turbines to generate electricity. Because of their physical size, in particular their height, wind farms can have an effect on aviation. Additionally, rotating wind turbine blades may have an impact on certain aviation operations, particularly ...
