Wind energy generation systems - Part 12-3: Power performance - Measurement based site calibration

IEC 61400-12-3:2022 specifies a measurement and analysis procedure for deriving the wind speed correction due to terrain effects and applies to the performance testing of wind turbines of all types and sizes connected to the electrical power network as described in IEC 61400‑12‑1. The procedure applies to the performance evaluation of specific wind turbines at specific locations. The purpose of this part of IEC 61400 is to provide a uniform methodology that will ensure consistency, accuracy and reproducibility in the measurement and analysis of a site calibration for use in the determination of the power performance of wind turbines. This document provides guidance in the measurement, analysis, and reporting of the site calibration for subsequent use in power performance testing for wind turbines. This first edition of IEC 61400-12-3 is part of a structural revision that cancels and replaces the performance standards IEC 61400-12-1:2017 and IEC 61400-12-2:2013. The structural revision contains no technical changes with respect to IEC 61400-12-1:2017 and IEC 61400‑12‑2:2013, but the parts that relate to wind measurements, measurement of site calibration and assessment of obstacle and terrain have been extracted into separate standards.

Systèmes de génération d’énergie éolienne - Partie 12-3: Performance de puissance - Étalonnage du site fondé sur le mesurage

IEC 61400-12-3:2022 spécifie une procédure de mesure et d’analyse de dérivation de la correction de vitesse du vent en raison des effets de terrain, et s’applique aux essais de performance d’éoliennes raccordés au réseau électrique de tous types et de toutes tailles, comme cela est décrit dans l’IEC 61400-12-1. La procédure est applicable pour l’évaluation de la performance d'éoliennes spécifiques sur des sites spécifiques. La présente partie de l'IEC 61400 a pour objet de fournir une méthodologie uniforme qui garantit la cohérence, l’exactitude et la reproductibilité du mesurage et de l'analyse d’un étalonnage de site pour utilisation, afin de déterminer la performance de puissance des éoliennes. Le présent document fournit des recommandations relatives au mesurage, à l'analyse et à la consignation des rapports de l’étalonnage du site pour une utilisation ultérieure, dans les essais de performance de puissance des éoliennes. La présente première édition de l’IEC 61400-12-3 fait partie d'une révision structurelle qui annule et remplace les normes de performance IEC 61400-12-1:2017 et IEC 61400-12-2:2013. Cette révision structurelle ne contient aucune modification technique par rapport à l'IEC 61400-12-1:2017 et l'IEC 61400-12 2:2013. Toutefois, les parties relatives aux mesurages du vent, au mesurage de l'étalonnage du site et à l'évaluation des obstacles et du terrain ont été extraites vers des normes distinctes.
