风力发电机（WT）布局和电气系统布局在海上风电场（OWF）设计中起着至关重要的作用。尾流效应对 OWF 的发电量有显着影响。位于尾流区域的WT将不会经历健康的风；因此它会影响发电。 WT 的正确放置可以减少 OWF 中的尾流效应。提出了基于蚁群优化（ACO）和多旅行商问题（MTSP）相结合的大型OWF的优化设计。该方法的目标是提高发电量、最大限度地减少电缆长度和电缆成本。通过考虑（a）考虑尾流效应的WT放置，（b）变电站的放置，（c）选择具有更高可靠性和最小功率损耗的海底电缆，以及（d）零交叉连接的WT电缆布线的最小长度。 ACO-MTSP 方法应用于与 280 个 WT 连接的大型 OWF，并将结果与参考 OWF 的结果进行比较。
The wind turbine (WT) layout and electrical system layout plays a vital role in offshore wind farm (OWF) design. The wake effect has a significant impact on the power production of the OWF. WTs in wake region will not experience healthy wind; hence it affects the power production. The proper placement of WTs can reduce the wake effect in OWF. The optimal design of large OWF is based on combined approach of Ant colony optimization (ACO) with multiple travelling salesmen problem (MTSP) is presented. The objectives of the approach are to improve power production, minimize the length of cable and cable cost. By considering (a) placement of WT with consideration of wake effect, (b) placement of substation, (c) selection of submarine cables with higher reliability and minimal power loss, and (d) minimum length of WT cable routing with zero cross connection. ACO-MTSP approach is applied on large OWF connected with 280 WTs and results are compared with the outcome of reference OWF.
