Větrné elektrárny - Část 50-3: Využití lidarů umístěných na gondole k měření větru

ČSN EN IEC 61400-50-3

The purpose of this part of IEC 61400 is to describe procedures and methods that ensure that wind measurements using nacelle-mounted wind lidars are carried out and reported consistently and according to best practice. This document does not prescribe the purpose or use case of the wind measurements. However, as this document forms part of the IEC 61400 series of standards, it is anticipated that the wind measurements will be used in relation to some form of wind energy test or resource assessment. The scope of this document is limited to forward-looking nacelle-mounted wind lidars (i.e. the measurement volume is located upstream of the turbine rotor).
This document aims to be applicable to any type and make of nacelle-mounted wind lidar. The method and requirements provided in this document are independent of the model and type of instrument, and also of the measurement principle and should allow application to new types of nacelle-mounted lidar.
This document aims to describe wind measurements using nacelle-mounted wind lidar with sufficient quality for the use case of power performance testing (according to IEC 61400-12-1:2017). Readers of this document should consider that other use cases may have other specific requirements.
