Determining the Optimized Hub Height of Wind Turbine Using the Wind Resource Map of South Korea

Although the size of the wind turbine has become larger to improve the economic feasibility of wind power generation, whether increases in rotor diameter and hub height always lead to the optimization of energy cost remains to be seen. This paper proposes an algorithm that calculates the optimized h...
