Tóm tắt

The effects of wind turbine wakes within operating wind farms has a substantial impact on the overall energy production from the farm. The current generation of models drastically underpredicts the impact of these wakes offshore leading to non-conservative estimates of energy capture and financial losses to wind farm operators and developers. To improve these models, detailed research of operating wind farms is necessary. Cornell University is a world leader of wind farm wakes effects and would like to partner with NREL to help improve wind farm modeling (by gathering additional wind farm data), develop better models and increase collaboration with European researchers working in the same area.
