Aeolus Toolbox for Dynamics Wind Farm Model, Simulation and Control

This paper presents the wind farm simulation model developed in the EU-FP7 project, AEOLUS. The idea is to provide a publicly available simulation package for researchers developing farm level con-trol solutions. With the software it is possible to auto generate a wind farm simulation model in Mat-lab/Simulink based on turbine parameters and farm geometry. The input to the farm simulator is power set points of individual turbines. Outputs from the farm simulation are power production, nacelle wind speed and fatigue loads (damage equivalent loads) of each turbine.
