Abstract
The tasks performed by ECN within the EU 5th Framework project 'EfficieNt Development of Offshore WindFarms', (ENDOW), are described. The main aim of the project was to validate, evaluate, enhance and interface wake and boundary-layer models for offshore utilizations. The tasks performed by ECN mainly refer to the validation and development of ECN's wake model WAKEFARM. Some modifications have been implemented into this model, which led to a considerable improvement in results. The model has been validated with different wake measurements: Measurements within the off-shore Vindeby wind farm. This includes measurements of meteorological data from conventional fixed masts as well as measurements which are taken with a mobile SODAR system mounted on a boat; Measurements within the Alsvik Wind farm; and Measurements which are taken in a model wind farm, which is placed in a wind tunnel. In addition, a comparison with calculational results from other partners in the project offered much insight into the accuracy of the WAKEFARM model.
