4.8.1 Getting started - WindSim

Tutorial 1: Hundhammerfjellet project39Figure 25. Wake deficit at hub height, wake model 3.EnergyThe annual energy production, AEP, is the most important feature we want to estimate in awind park micrositing project. In a given wind condition, the available power is proportional tothe cube of the wind speed, which means that uncertainty in wind prediction is tripled whencomputing the available power; hence accuracy is particularly appreciated in wind energyassessment.Run the module with the default settings, as shown in Figure 26, and get the annual energyproduction for each turbine hence for the whole wind park.
