Effect of wind speed gradients on AEP in a wind farm cluster

The engineering flow models used to estimate annual energy production (AEP) in offshore wind farm layout optimization typically assume inflow homogeneity over the model domain. This assumption lies in contrast with observations of horizontal wind speed gradients in coastal regions where many offshore wind farms are being constructed. Accounting...

The Effect of Wake Models, and Environmental Conditions on Wind Farm Layout Optimization

The purpose of this research is to broaden current knowledge of Wind Farm Layout Optimization (WFLO). Until now, there are many research conducted on different optimization methods, annual energy yield calculation processes, and wake modeling methods. But, few papers have addressed the effect of different modeling parameters on WFLO in a form of...
