DETERMINING THE OPTIMAL PLACEMENT OF WIND TURBINES IN LARGE WINDFARMS USING GENETIC ALGORITHMS
One of the most important tasks at the design stage of a large wind farm is to determine its optimal layout in order to achieve maximum output power at minimum cost per unit ofpower. This problem can be solved by determining the optimal location of wind turbines on the territory of the windfarm. In this paper, the target is achieved by using genetic algorithms at a constant speed and a fixed wind direction.
