Abstract

One crucial part of the wind farm design is the optimization of the wind turbine layout, which directly affects the utilization of wind resource and the economy of the wind farm. In this paper, an optimization program based on the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm was developed for the wind turbine layout from a research perspective. Firstly we validated this program by comparing it with other algorithms. Furthermore, we used this program to investigate how the wind speed affects the economy and the optimized layout solution of a wind farm.
