Abstract

New aspects were added to the wind farm layout optimization problem by including commercial turbine selection and a realistic representation for the thrust coefficient. The available manufacturers' data were used to develop generic representation for the thrust coefficient, on which the wake and power calculations mainly depend. A simple field-based cost model was implemented. The optimization was performed for onshore and offshore conditions using MATLAB genetic algorithm, ga, solver for two simple test cases. Three objective functions were considered, individually: (1) the output power, (2) the capacity factor, and (3) the cost per output power.
