Abstract:
This work presents validation of an
intermediate version of a quasi-steady
wind farm flow model which will be part of
distributed control of a wind farm. In
addition power and three load quantifiers
as calculated by the model are
demonstrated. It is concluded that
differences between measurement and
prediction are smaller than 2 m/s (wind
speed) and 200 kW (power), measured
minimum in wind speed and aerodynamic
power at second or third turbine is not
predicted, and main differences originate
from un-modelled spatial variations in wind
speed and too gradually modelled decay
of wind speed.
