Short summary
Increasing the efficiency of wind farms can be achieved via reducing the impact of wakes – flow regions with lower wind speed occurring downwind from turbines. This work describes training and validation of a novel method for the estimation of the wake effects impacting a turbine. The results show that for most tested wind conditions, the developed model is capable of robust detection of wake presence and accurate characterisation of its properties. Further validation and improvements are planned.
