SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR OPTIMIZING OPERATION OF A WIND FARM

摘要

Methods and systems for optimizing operation of a wind farm 100 are disclosed. The method includes providing a farm-level wake model for the wind farm 100 based on historical wake parameters corresponding to reference sets of interacting wind turbines 102 in the wind farm 100. Another step includes monitoring one or more real-time wake parameters for wind turbines 102 in the wind farm 100. A further step includes identifying at least two interacting wind turbines 102 from the reference sets based on the wake parameters. Another step includes determining a wake offset angle between the interacting wind turbines 102 as a function of at least one of a wind direction, a geometry between the interacting wind turbines 102, or a wake meandering component. The method also includes continuously updating the wake model online based at least partially on the wake parameters and the wake offset angle and controlling the interacting wind turbines 102 based on the updated wake model.
