Analysis of Two Onshore Wind Farms with a Dynamic Farm Controller (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ahmad, T., Girard, N., Kazemtabrizi, B., & Matthews, P. (2015, November). Analysis of Two Onshore Wind Farms with a Dynamic Farm Controller. Presented at EWEA 2015, Paris, France

This work develops an assessment methodology for identifying potential areas where coordinated control can increase farm power output. A dynamic farm controller is presented that exploits the benefits of reducing power of the upstream turbines for in...

Onshore Wind Farm Fast Wake Estimation Method: Critical Analysis of the Jensen Model (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Sidwell, N., Ahmad, T., & Matthews, P. (2015, November). Onshore Wind Farm Fast Wake Estimation Method: Critical Analysis of the Jensen Model. Presented at EWEA 2015, Paris, France

Wind energy is the most rapidly expanding source of renewable energy in the UK and has supplied 5% of the country’s electricity requirements since 2010. With finite space available for future development, investors and manufacturers are constantly lo...

Dynamic Wind Farm Controller (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ahmad, T., Matthews, P., Kazemtabrizi, B., & Smith, C. (2015, September). Dynamic Wind Farm Controller. Presented at 11th EAWE PhD Seminar on Wind Energy in Europe., Stuttgart, Germany

This work presents a dynamic wind farm controller for maximising power output of a wind farm. The controller uses a coordinated control approach where the output of the upstream turbines is varied to minimise wake effects on the downstream turbines.... Read More about Dynamic Wind Farm Controller.
