Definitions

• the invention relates to a method for micrositing a wind farm.
• Micrositing is usually the placement of wind turbines within a wind farm. Each individual wind turbine at the respective location should be optimally set up taking into account criteria such as maximum energy yield (best locations in terms of prevailing wind distribution), necessary distances between the systems and the lowest possible effort for infrastructure (roads, foundation construction, crane parking spaces, etc.).
• this micrositing is usually carried out using location maps (of the future wind farm).
• the layout of a park is then created on the basis of this map material and in a next step the site is inspected in order to determine the infrastructure requirements is received. Depending on the weather and location, this can be an arduous task. In addition, such an inspection does not provide an overview of the entire wind farm.
• earth surface measurement data are processed in a computer or computer by means of a corresponding park calculation program (e.g. WASP) and on the basis of this data the energy application of an individual wind energy installation within an entire park is calculated for the respective planned wind farm location and, in addition, a Value for the so-called parking efficiency can be specified.
• This parking efficiency is a measure of the average reduction in the yield of the individual systems in the park compared to a wind turbine at a single location.
• the method according to the invention makes it possible to dispense with a difficult visit to the planned wind farm location. It is also no longer necessary to visit the planned wind farm location with a helicopter flight, so that the costs for this can also be dispensed with.
• the region of the planned wind farm is selected from the available data records of the earth surface measurement data and a three-dimensional model is created.
• This can be virtual (with screen) but also real using one made of wood, metal or other material existing model happen.
• This model enables simple micrositing of the wind turbines with an overview of the entire planned wind farm.
• the micrositing process of the entire wind farm can be simplified and accelerated, and it is possible to calculate the wind conditions more precisely and thus also to increase the wind farm yield results. More precise results can also be achieved by means of the data sets of the earth surface measurement data when appropriate parking calculation programs are used.
• NASA has measured the entire earth using a new method and makes these data records available in electronic form, which, with the appropriate application and programming, allow a three-dimensional image of each earth surface point or area to be reproduced.
• the particular advantage of using these data sets is that they are already available in electronic form and can therefore be processed in a relatively simple manner by parking calculation programs.
