Creating a Wind Farm

To calculate EBA, you should create a wind farm in the project, and import the objects relative with this wind farm, such as turbines, map, and masts.

  1. Create a project for post-assessment. For details, refer to the section Creating a Project.
  2. Create a wind farm in the project. For details, refer to the section Importing Turbine Layout.
  3. Choose Database>Device Library>Turbine Library, and select the turbine models applied in this wind farm. For details, refer to the section Importing Turbine Model.
    Note: In a wind farm, only one turbine model is allowed. If you need to assess a multi-turbine-type wind farm, create a separate wind farm for each turbine type.
  4. Import a map. For details, refer to the section Importing a Map. If no map file is available, draw a map in Greenwich GIS. Refer to the section Creating a Terrain or Roughness Map based on Polygon for more information.
  5. Import masts. For details, refer to the section Importing Mast Data.
