Wind Inflow-State Discretisation Effects on Wake Loss and Annual Energy Production in Offshore Wind Farms
This paper examines how inflow-state discretisation affects wake-loss and annual energy production (AEP) estimates for offshore wind farms nd in particular how directional resolution, wind-speed bin width, and sector-mean inflow representations affect predicted turbine power, wake loss, and AEP.
