Solutions: openWind® Enterprise
 

openWind® Enterprise

OpenWind® Enterprise is a wind project design and optimization software application created to provide professional wind developers with a highly configurable toolbox of capabilities that extend beyond energy capture. Using industry-leading geographical information systems (GIS) interface, users can optimize for cost of energy, assess deep array impacts, define and analyze strategies for managed shut-down of turbines, and manage uncertainty.

Key features include:

  • Cost of Energy Optimization
  • Deep Array Wake Model
  • Directional Curtailment, Inflow Angle, Turbulence
  • Effective Turbulence Intensity (IEC61400-1 Ed3 Annex)
  • Mass-conservation Wind Flow Model (Wind Map)
  • Shadow Flicker Module
  • Noise Model
  • Time Series Energy Capture (8760s, 12X24)
  • Turbine Scheduling (Noise, Bat, Shadow-Flicker, Curtailments)
  • Uncertainty Module
  • Zone of Visual Impact Model

New! openWind® Basic

OpenWind® Basic is designed to be a cost-effective solution that provides wind project developers and individual customers with some of the superior functionality found in the Enterprise edition.

Key features include:

  • Shadow Flicker Module: Quickly calculate shadow flicker minutes based on turbine orientation and wind speed distribution.
  • Multi-Threaded Wind Mapping: Run more simulations in less time.
  • Enhanced User Interface: Advanced GIS-style functionality and logic with the ability to manipulate vector objects.
