Comparison of Weibull parameters computation methods and analytical estimation of wind turbine capacity factor using polynomial power curve model: case study of a wind farm

摘要

Introduction Wind speed probability at a site has to be modeled for evaluating the energy generation potential of a wind farm. Analytical computation of wind turbine capacity factor at the planning stage of a wind farm is very crucial. Thus, the comparison of Weibull parameters estimation methods and computation of wind turbine capacity factor are the focus of this paper.
