More Information
Summary:A method and system for operating a wind farm by reconciling performance and operational constraints is disclosed. A wind farm may be subject to wakes, thereby reducing performance In order to lessen the effects of wakes, wake steering of the wind turbines may be performed. Specifically, both an operationally-independent analysis (such as by using a computational fluid dynamic model) and an operationally-dependent analysis may be performed, and the outputs of each analysis may be reconciled in order to determine whether (and how much) to wake steer.
