Abstract
When wind blows through a wind farm with multiple rows of wind turbines, the wind speed on a downstream wind turbine is usually lower than that on an upstream wind turbine. This phenomenon is called wake effect. During the design stage of a wind farm, the study of wake effects will affect the most suitable location of each wind turbine. The major factors influencing the wake losses include the incoming wind speed, wind direction, and turbine position. In this paper, one of the preliminary phase of an offshore wind farm project, which relates to the placement of wind farm turbines by maximizing wind energy capture, was studied. The study is specified into an offshore wind farm, in sync with an on-going project as case study, which poses consistency and efficiency.
