The placement of wind turbines in a wind farm, which is called micro-siting, is a crucial task regarding the maximization of the energy production in a wind farm. In this study, a novel method developed to improve the micro-siting process. The method correlates the atmospheric flow field solutions obtained from CFD, based on Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) along with observation data. POD calculates dominant characteristics of the artificial solutions of the flow field. Then, it reconstructs real flow field using dominant features and observation data.

Reconstruction of atmospheric flows based on proper orthogonal decomposition method

The placement of wind turbines in a wind farm, which is called micro-siting, is a crucial task in regard to the maximization of the energy production in a wind farm. The maximum energy production is only possible if all the wind turbines are placed in optimum locations. Although the micro-siting of wind turbines has many aspects to be considered such as wind field analysis, wake effect of the other turbines and accessibility, the wind speed is the most significant parameter. The statistical wind speed distr...
A Homopolar HTSG Topology for Large Direct-Drive Wind Turbines
Keysan, Ozan (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2011-10-01)
For offshore wind energy, there is a trend toward larger wind turbines. The increased mass of a power-takeoff system increases the installation cost of the turbine. Direct-drive superconducting generators have the potential to reduce the installation cost of wind turbines. For a successful entry to the off-shore-wind-energy market, a high-temperature superconducting generator should be as reliable as conventional generators. It is proposed that a stationary superconducting direct-current-field winding may i...
Simultaneous optimization of electrical interconnection configuration and cable sizing in offshore wind farms
Fahrioğlu, Murat; Sedighi, Mohsen; Moradzadeh, Mohammad; Kukrer, Osman (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2018-1-18)
Offshore wind farm (OWF) is the largest renewable energy resource. The electrical interconnection cost of OWFs is a considerable fraction of the overall design cost of the farm. In order to minimize the investment and operational costs, this paper proposes an optimization formulation to find the optimal electrical interconnection configuration of wind turbines (WTs), and the optimal cable sizing simultaneously. This simultaneous minimization of total trenching length and cable dimensions creates a complex o...
Transient Stability Enhancement of the Power System Interconnected with Wind Farm Using Generalized Unified Power Flow Controller with Simplex Optimized Self-Tuning Fuzzy Damping Scheme
Vural, A. M.; Bayindir, K. C. (2012-07-01)
Due to increasing penetration of wind power into traditional grid, co-working of synchronous generators with wind turbines is gaining attention in terms of system stability. This paper deals with the transient stability enhancement of such systems by generalized unified power flow controller (GUPFC) having grid frequency switching quasi multi-pulse converters. Besides independent real and reactive power flow control capability of the two series converters, one series converter is commissioned to damp synchr...
Classical Aeroelastic Stability Analysis of Large Composite Wind Turbine Blades
Farsadi, Touraj; Kayran, Altan (2016-01-04)
To achieve higher energy production bigger wind turbine systems with very long blades are increasingly used in the wind turbine industry. As the length of the wind turbine blades is increased, blades become more flexible in bending and torsion. Increased bending and torsional flexibility of long wind turbine blades may cause torsional divergence and flapwise bending-torsion flutter at high speeds. Therefore, it is important that aeroelastic stability characteristics of the blades be investigated to ensure t...
