4. Wind farm
The creation of a wind farm requires at least two questions to be answered:
how should wind turbines be laid out in the farm?
where should the farm be sited?
4.1 Layout of wind turbines
The answer to the first question is generic, as it depends only on the physics of wind turbines, as described above. In particular, equation (1) shows that on leaving the wind turbine the wind speed is divided by three, which implies (conservation of flux) that the area of the air stream is multiplied...
