Abstract

This study deals with the modeling of the wake effect on the energy extracted from the wind farms. It covers the wake effect of the interaction of the upstream wind rotor with/without the upstream right and/or upstream left wind rotor. A mathematical model representing a single wake model based on the linear description of the wake is developed in order to predict the wind speed inside the wake region at any downstream distance within the wind farm. Two different types of turbines with diameters of 62 m and 100 m are considered. Accordingly the effect of the wake on the energy produced from the wind farms is estimated.
