Wind farm control can be used to increase wind energy e ciency by maximizing power in wind farms that are already installed. In can also be used to mitigate structural loads to maximize the lifetime of the turbines and better integrate wind energy into the energy market. Currently, turbines in a wind farm are operated to maximize their own .

2. Brief Wind Turbine Description The wind turbine under study belongs to an onshore wind park located in Poland. It has a power of 2300 kW and a diameter of 101 m. Figure 1 shows its major components. A summary of the wind turbine technical specifications is Fig. 1. Main components of the wind turbine [16]. given in Table I. The wind farm .
of integrity. The wind load beyond which loss of integrity can be expected is referred to as ultimate wind load. The nominal ultimate strength provided for by the designer is based on an assumed ultimate wind load equal to the design wind load times a wind load fac:tor. This statement ie valid for the simple case where wind is the dominant load.
Aerodynamics of Wind Turbines Emrah Kulunk New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology USA 1. Introduction A wind turbine is a device that extracts kine tic energy from the wind and converts it into mechanical energy. Therefore wind turbine power production depends on the interaction between the rotor and the wind.
Wind turbines use the kinetic energy of the wind and convert it to mechanical energy. This is then used to produce electricity, grinding of grain or pumping of water (windmills, wind pumps). There are two types of wind turbines, horizontal and vertical. Vertical axis wind turbines (VAWT) have the rotor shaft vertically.
For application in wind energy resource assessment, sodar is primarily used to (1) measure the characteristics of the wind shear profile at heights above ground where wind turbine rotors operate, and/or (2) compare the wind conditions at selected sites relative to one or more reference wind measurement locations (typically meteorological masts).
