چکیده

In this paper, particle swarm optimization is utilized to optimize the placement of wind turbines in a wind farm. Since wind is one of the sustainable energy sources, it is important to build the wind parks as efficient as possible to extract the largest possible amount of electrical power. Here, the location of each wind turbine is adjusted within a predefined square field considered as a wind farm. The output power of the farm and the total cost of construction are the parameters considered to create an objective function. The simulated results are shown in graphs and tables. Also comparisons are carried out with previous presented optimizations. The results prove that in present study, the efficiency and electrical power extraction of the wind farm are increased regarding the total cost of construction.

Scheduling electric power production at a wind farm

We present a model for scheduling power generation at a wind farm, and introduce a particle swarm optimization algorithm with a small world network structure to solve the model. The solution generated by the algorithm defines the operational status of wind turbines for a scheduling horizon selected by a decision maker. Different operational scenarios are constructed based on time series data of...

Towards reactive power dispatch within a wind farm using hybrid PSO

With the increasing penetration of wind power generation, the stringent grid codes are imposed by the system operators insisting the wind turbines to behave similar to that of synchronous generators. As a part of fulfilling the grid code in terms of steady state reactive power injection at point of common coupling, in this research work, the problem of optimal reactive power dispatch within a w...

Learning Decision Rules by Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) for Wind Turbine Fault Diagnosis

The next generation wind turbine systems become more and more complex, which requires a more accurate fault detection method to ensure their efficiency. On a wind farm, sibling turbines should see similar wind speed if they both work normally. Based on this, we design wind speed difference tests to detect both hard failures and soft failures, including anemometer faults. In such tests, it is cr...
