6 FAQs about [Calculation method of wind power generation efficiency]

How to calculate PMSG wind generator?

Flowchart of calculation for PMSG wind generator 1. Wind speed V w m/s is taken as the input value, and then all state variables of WG will be calculated. 2. Wind turbine output power is calculated from Eq. 2.2.

How to calculate wind turbine output power?

1. Wind speed V w m/s is taken as the input value, and then all state variables of WG will be calculated. 2. Wind turbine output power is calculated from Eq. 2.2. Then, MPP (Maximum Power Point) produced by wind turbine is searched, resulting in the maximum wind turbine output power and the corresponding rotor speed.

How can we measure the efficiency of wind farms and wind turbines?

To the best of authors’ knowledge, in the literature can be found only two studies measuring the relative efficiency of wind farms and wind turbines by using DEA method, and one study assessing the performance of wind farms by using stochastic frontier models.

How to calculate generator state variables in a wind farm?

Generator state variables are calculated using the d-q axis equivalent circuit. As one application of the presented methods, annual energy production and capacity factor of the wind farm can easily be evaluated by using wind speed characteristics expressed by Weibull distribution function.

How to determine the efficiency of an induction generator?
