Inflow-Dependent Sensitivity of Layout Optimization Performance: A Case Study of the Lillgrund Wind Farm

<div class="section abstract"> <div class="htmlview paragraph">Layout optimization is one of the most effective approaches to reduce the power loss induced by turbine wakes. However, the performance of a wind farm is strongly affected by the inflow direction. This paper conducted a sensitivity analysis on a realistic wind farm, Lillgrund Wind Farm, to investigate the sensitivity of inflow direction on the power production of the initial layout and optimal limits. A wake model conside
