Wake loss-WindPRO (WDC<br />

Actual array loss<br />

Figure 16 The Eddy Viscosity model in the standard set up perform poorer than the N. O.<br />

Jensen model (used in WindPRO and WAsP) in standard set-up based on the <strong>Klim</strong> test data. It<br />

calculates 1percent point less losses than WindPRO, where it is obvious that the real losses is<br />

higher eventhoug the wake losses not can be measured direct, the patterns gives a quite good<br />

idea. If the loss level were decreased 1 percent point, WTG 10 would have no Wake loss at all.<br />

Figure 17 The used set-up of the Eddy Viscosity model in Windfarmer. No parameter variations<br />

have been tested within this model.<br />

Data delivery and acknowledgements<br />

Thanks to Vestas and Nordjyllandsværket (Power plant for Northern Jutland which<br />

own and operate the wind farm) for being very helpful and for delivering data.<br />

Thanks to Kevin Romuld, EAPC, North Dakota for helping with Windfarmer<br />

calculations for comparison.<br />
