论文摘要
近年来,唤醒转向已被建立为一种有前途的方法,以增加风电场的能源产量。当前估计唤醒转向年度能源产量(AEP)的实践包括通过简化的替代模型评估风电场,对估计收益产生了巨大的不确定性。本文提出了一个框架,以确定在AEP上唤醒转向的好处,并结合了替代模型和大型涡流模拟的仿真结果,以减少不确定性。此外,考虑到随时随地的风向,以更好地表示真实风电场的环境条件。高斯过程回归用于将两个数据集结合到单个改进的能量增益模型中。该模型估计,与替代模型的估计值相比,该模型的AEP估计AEP增长了0.60%。
In recent years, wake steering has been established as a promising method to increase the energy yield of a wind farm. Current practice in estimating the benefit of wake steering on the annual energy production (AEP) consists of evaluating the wind farm with simplified surrogate models, casting a large uncertainty on the estimated benefit. This paper presents a framework for determining the benefit of wake steering on the AEP, incorporating simulation results from a surrogate model and large eddy simulations in order to reduce the uncertainty. Furthermore, a time-varying wind direction is considered for a better representation of the ambient conditions at the real wind farm site. Gaussian process regression is used to combine the two data sets into a single improved model of the energy gain. This model estimates a 0.60% gain in AEP for the considered wind farm, which is a 76% increase compared to the estimate of the surrogate model.
