| Summary: | Cleaner energy systems 4, 100058 (2023). doi:10.1016/j.cles.2023.100058 ... : This study aimed to apply empirical data to assess wind energy production at the Búrfell site in Iceland based on the E44 turbine model. The empirical data are 5 years of recordings at the site location by the Iceland Metrological office. The wind speed data are measured at a 10 m height from 2017 to 2021. There are two E44 wind turbines test installed on the site. In the previous studies, the wind farm capacity and Levelized cost of energy (LCOE) were reported without investigating the wake loss model and its impacts on LCOE and have an estimation applied. The previous research was based on the two installed wind turbines at the site, which are located in a straight line and perpendicular to the prevailing wind speed. This study applies the Jensen-Katic model to investigate wake loss. Downwind and crosswind ten-rotor diameters and five-rotor diameters are calculated respectively as the best options. Afterward, an appropriate number of wind turbines is suggested for 80MW production. In addition, this study's ... |
