POWER COEFFICIENT • Indicates the fraction of power
available in the wind that is produced as electrical output:
𝐶𝑃 =𝑃𝑎𝑎𝑎𝑎𝑎𝑎12𝜌𝜌𝑉0

• Depends on wind speed and on
rotor speed
• Characterize rotor speed by tip speed ratio:
𝑇𝑇𝑇 𝑆𝑇𝑆𝑆𝑆 𝑅𝑅𝑅𝑇𝑅 =2𝜋𝑅𝜋𝑉0
where: R = blade radius N = rotor speed (rpm) ρ = air density V0 = upstream wind speed

GENERATOR POWER LIMITATION
• Maximum output is limited by electrical generator capacity – Here 3.6 MW – Prevents burnout of

POWER LIMIT 2 • Turbine rotor power increases
with V3 • Generator power absorption
limited by ability to dissipate heat.
• Practical limitations on size/weight of generator
• Compromise between power capacity and size/weight 0 5 10 15 20

WIND TURBINE PERFORMANCE MEASURES SUMMARY
• CP and TSR characterize wind turbine performance at an individual wind speed
• Manufacturers typically provide wind turbine performance characteristics in the form of power output vs wind speed data
• A variety of types of wind turbines are available and each has advantages and disadvantages
• Capacity factor (CF) is an important measure of in-use performance – Depends on the local wind conditions and the wind turbine
performance
