...Gustavo S. Böhme; Eliane A. Fadigas; Julio R. Martinez; Carlos E. M. Tassinari Micrositing wind flow modeling presents one of the most relevant uncertainties in the project of wind power plants. Studies in the area indicate that the average uncertainty related to this item varies between 2.4% and 8...

... of the sensitivities of the facet characterization outputs to variations of SOFAST input parameters is presented. The results of the sensitivity analysis provided the basis for a linear uncertainty analysis, which is also included here. Input parameters included hardware parameters and SOFAST setup variables. Output...

...D. J. Lekou; F. Mouzakis For load measurements conducted on current wind turbines according to technical specification IEC 61400-13 load-based as well as analytically determined calibrations are possible. The uncertainties involved in load measurements due to the employment of these two methods may...

...Matthias Lange In this work the uncertainty of wind power predictions is investigated with a special focus on the important role of the nonlinear power curve. Based on numerical predictions and measured data from six onshore wind farms the overall prediction accuracy is assessed and it is shown...
