Abstract EN

An investigation on the power output on effect of tower height with same diameter of rotor was conducted in a wind turbine site.

As the wind acceleration is varying with height, 3 levels were selected according to the availability of tower.

The responses of power output with respect to variation of wind speed are changing for the tower heights of 30, 40, and 50 m.

The study showed that the actual ideal power output and measured real power output follow the same trend within range of operating wind speed.

The empirical model used for calculation of actual ideal power output was compared with real power output and the overall concepts in power output also had been analysed.
