Abstract
A method for real-time prediction of wind conditions across a wind farm comprising a plurality of wind turbines, the wind farm being arranged at a wind farm site, is disclosed. A first library of site specific mean wind flow patterns related to the wind farm site, and a second library of non-site specific turbulence patterns, are provided. Weather data is measured at a plurality of positions within the wind farm site, and based on the measured weather data, a mean wind flow pattern is selected based on the first library and a turbulence pattern is selected based on the second library. A site specific wind flow field across the wind farm site is modelled, based on the selected mean wind flow pattern and the selected turbulence pattern, and wind conditions across the wind farm are predicted, based on the site specific wind flow field.
