Abstract
An accurate model of power plays a crucial role in turbine energy assessment, wind turbine condition monitoring, estimation of wind energy potential, warranty formulations, power forecasting, wind turbine selection, optimization of the operational cost and expansion of windfarm. To achieve all these, algorithms of linear and cubic law models are used to predict the output power of BWC Excel 10 wind turbine. The comparative results show that the considered models can approximate and satisfactorily predicts the output power of wind turbines when compared with fundamental equation of wind turbine that depends on stringent factors like air density, turbine blade parameters, mechanical and control issues etc to yield similar results.
