The Optimization of Cable Layout Design in Wind Farm Internal Networks
Main Article Content
Abstract
In the paper the author focuses on different ways of obtaining the optimal cable layout design in wind farm internal networks. Examples of calculations and comparing results for different methods of solving the objective were presented. The possibilities of using network methods (graph optimization methods) were shown. The usefulness of using the Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) method to define the optimal cable layout design in wind farm internal networks was shown.
