4.2 Horns Rev <strong>Wind</strong> Farm data<br />
<strong>Model</strong> predictions were compared to measured wind data from the Horns Rev wind farm in the<br />
North Sea West of Esbjerg (see figure 8). Two wind directions were considered, both of which<br />
were selected to be along the lines of the wind farm to get the maximum wake effect: from due<br />
West (270°) and from about South-East (222°). The wind directions in relation to the wind farm<br />
layout is also shown in the figure. The actual wind direction was measured at a monitoring mast,<br />
while the wind speed was deduced from the turbine power production.<br />

Figure 8 The “Horns Rev <strong>Wind</strong> Farm” layout.<br />
The wind farm consists of 80 V80 Vestas 2MW-turbines with a rotor diameter of 80m and a hub<br />
height of 70m. The spacing is about 7 rotor diameters.<br />
The arrows indicate the two wind directions investigated as well as the turbine lines, the data<br />
from which have been used in the comparison.<br />
