The RETScreen software wind power model is designed to evaluate energy production and savings, costs, emission reductions, financial viability and risk for central-grid, isolated-grid and off-grid wind energy projects, for multi-turbine and single-turbine hybrid systems.
QBlade is a public source wind turbine calculation software, distributed under the Academic Public License. The software is seamlessly integrated into XFOIL , an airfoil design and analysis tool. The purpose of this software is the design and aerodynamic simulation of wind turbine blades.
The software quantifies the wind resource in a desired terrain in order to assess the feasibility of a proposed wind farm. The software's objective is to design the most profitable wind farm. This is achieved by taking into account the measured wind data at a measurement tower and the terrain conditions. Both of these are essential to be able ...
WindStation is a wind energy software which uses computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to conduct wind resource assessments in complex terrain. The physical background and its numerical implementation are described in. [1] and the official manual of the software.
The Wind Data Generator (WDG) is a wind energy software tool capable of running WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting Model) [1] model to create a wind atlas and to generate wind data at any location, any height of interest for any resolution from 3 km to 10 km.
WindSim is wind energy software that uses CFD to optimize wind turbine placement in onshore and offshore wind farms. WindSim is used worldwide by wind resource assessment professionals to help design more profitable wind farms. [1] [failed verification]
Wind power generation is directly linked to weather conditions and thus the first aspect of wind power forecasting is the prediction of future values of the necessary weather variables at the level of the wind farm. This is done by using numerical weather prediction (NWP) models. Such models are based on equations governing the motions and ...
