A Review of Methodological Approaches for the Design and Optimization of Wind Farms [PDF]
, 2014 This article presents a review of the state of the art of the Wind Farm Design and Optimization (WFDO) problem. The WFDO problem refers to a set of advanced planning actions needed to extremize the performance of wind farms, which may be composed of a ...

Reductions in wind farm main bearing rating lives resulting from wake impingement [PDF]
Wind Energy ScienceThis paper studies the impacts of wake impingement on main bearing rating lives predicted during the wind turbine design stage. A computational tool chain was developed to explore and quantify these effects across a wind farm populated by 10 MW wind ...

Simulating wind turbine interactions using the vorticity transport equations
, 2009 The aerodynamic interactions that can occur within a wind farm result in the constituent turbines generating a lower power output than would be possible if each of the turbines were operated in isolation.

Small Wind Turbine Starting Behaviour [PDF]
, 2012 Small wind turbines that operate in low-wind environments are prone to suffer performance degradation as they often fail to accelerate to a steady, power-producing condition. The behaviour during this process is called “starting behaviour” and it is the

A ducted wind turbine simulation model for building simulation
, 2004 Power production is shifting away from centralized generation plants to production of heat and power at the point of demand. A technology that may play a part in this shift is the ducted wind turbine (DWT).
