Abstract

A method for optimizing wake management in a wind farm includes receiving, via one or more position localization sensors, the position data from at least one nacelle of wind turbines in the wind farm. The method also includes determining angle of the nacelle(s) of the wind turbines with respect to true north based on the position data. Moreover, the method includes determining a wind direction at the nacelle(s) of the wind turbines. As such, the method includes generating a wake estimation model of the wind farm in real-time by using the wind direction and the angle of the nacelle(s). In addition, the method includes running the wake estimation model to determine one or more optimal operating parameters for the wind turbines that maximize energy production of the wind turbine. Thus, the method includes operating the wind farm by using the optimal operating parameter(s) so as to optimize the wake management of the wind farm.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to wind farms, and more particularly to systems and methods for optimizing wake management in wind farms using real-time kinematic (RTK) sensors and digital twin technology. Background technique [0002] Wind power is considered to be one of the cleanest and most environmentally friendly energy sources currently available, and wind turbines have attracted increasing attention in this regard. A modern wind turbine typically includes a tower, generator, gearbox, nacelle and one or more rotor blades. The rotor blades capture kinetic energy from the wind using known airfoil principles and transfer the kinetic energy through rotational energy to turn a shaft which couples the rotor blades to a gearbox or, if a gearbox is not used, directly to a generator. A generator then converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy that can be deployed to the utility grid. Such configurations may also include a power conv...
