Research on the Met Mast Siting Used in Post Assessment of Mountain Wind Farm

Abstract:

Abstract. For a mountain wind farm in southern China, the paper used CFD software, METEODYN WT, to simulate the wind in all directions to assess their speed-up factor, turbulence intensity, inflow angle and horizontal deviation caused by the terrain. The turbulence intensity, the horizontal deviation and the inflow angle in the met-mast position should be low or small, and the speed-up factor should be able to represent the average level of all the wind turbine sites. The positional relationship of the wind turbine and met-mast is reference to IEC61400-12-1. The paper provided two optional areas.
