WindSim 7 includes many new features, added functionality, and valuable extensions requested by our users.
In particular we would like to highlight the new plug-ins; MCP (Measure-Correlate-Predict), Reanalysis Data Downloader and Queuing.
MCP (Measure-Correlate-Predict)
MCP is used to predict the long-term wind resources at a proposed site, by relating short-term measurements at the site
to long-term measurements at a reference site. The MCP plug-in uses linear methods and artificial neural network methods.
Reanalysis Data Downloader
In the early stage of a project, when no measurements are available, reanalysis data will be the only alternative to supply a wind climatology.
The Reanalysis Data Downloader downloads time series based on MERRA data, directly in WindSim's time series format. Time series to be used
in early stage projects, but also for long-term correction.
Queuing
Queuing makes it possible for the user to run several projects in a row with the possibility to give priority to certain projects and to get
email updates about the status of the projects. Utilize the available hardware resources in an optimal way with the new queuing functionality.
Features
WindSim 7 includes many new features which will be appreciated by our users like; cross-checking plots with feed-back form,
terrain complexity calculation, new wall function, power density calculation, clean simulation stop, improved smoothing, increased model size and much more.

Nowcasting
WindSim AS and UniResearch will undertake a common R&D project titled: "Optimize wind farm performance by delivering accurate
shortest-term wind and power forecasts".
The main target of the project is to deliver accurate wind power production forecasts for wind turbines and wind flow predictions
around the turbines for the next minutes and up to several hours ahead, so called nowcasting.
The project is a natural extension of an ongoing project on power forecasting and it will run for another two full years,
it is funded by the Norwegian Research Council under the program ENERGIX.
