description The usage of electrical energy is still increasing around the world, and extending to cover more electrical power based applications. This will lead to more atmosphere changes on the globe in the next decades. Thus, renewable energy must be used in an efficient way to reduce the negative effects of these power generators. The location of the wind farm plays a big role in determining the efficiency of the output power. The aim of this research is to study which turbine configuration suits best for a specific location, taking into consideration all the possible constraints. In order to reach our goal, three different turbines configurations are studied with least possible uncertainties. The optimal configuration is when the wind shear is minimal at the height of the hub, the wake effect is negligible and the capacity factor is maximal (the economical part is not included). In this paper Sorochi Gory (located in Tatarstan, Russia) wind farm site will be explained, analysed. The power exponent and capacity factor will be calculated, and the results are displayed.   Doi: 10.28991/HEF-2020-01-02-02 Full Text: PDF
