Abstract:This paper investigates the optimal layout of wind turbines (WTs) within a wind farm. Finding the best placement of WTs in a wind farm is a challenging process due to the existence of multiple wake effects. A biogeography based optimization (BBO) algorithm method is proposed to search for the optimal location of WTs in a wind farm (WF), to maximize the power produced by the WF and improve the annual economic performance of the WF. A wind turbine (WT) that operates in the wake of one or more other turbines is s… Show more
