Analysis of Multiple-Doppler Lidar Data for the Characterization of Wakes in an Offshore Wind Farm.
Masters, ForWind - Universität Oldenburg.
Abstract
The purpose of this master thesis is to develop an algorithm that efficiently combines multiple-Doppler Lidar wind farm wake measurements into a twodimensional wind field. Useful data sets have to be selected to be used for
the characterization of wakes with this algorithm. An error analysis will be performed to assess the quality and accuracy of the developed methods. Validation of the algorithm is based on Lidar simulations in a large eddy
simulated wind field containing a wind turbine wake. Algorithm results are compared with existing engineering wake models. Recommendations are given for the limitations of the algorithm and under which conditions it can or
cannot be applied with sufficient accuracy of the result.
