Flexcom is a finite element analysis software package used in the offshore oil and gas and marine renewable energy industries. An educational version is also available for universities . Flexcom should be distinguished from Flexcom Company Limited, a Korean flexible printed circuit board manufacturer.
Germanischer Lloyd found FAST suitable for "the calculation of onshore wind turbine loads for design and certification." [3] [4] The open source software QBlade developed by the wind energy research group of Hermann Föttinger Institute of TU Berlin (Chair of Fluid Dynamics) is a BEM code coupled with the airfoil simulation code XFOIL.
The purpose of this software is the design and aerodynamic simulation of wind turbine blades. The integration in XFOIL allows for the user to rapidly design custom airfoils and compute their performance curves, Extrapolating the performance data to a range of 360° Angle of attack , and directly integrate them into a wind turbine rotor simulation.
WindSim is wind energy software that uses CFD to optimize wind turbine placement in onshore and offshore wind farms. WindSim is used worldwide by wind resource assessment professionals to help design more profitable wind farms. [1] [failed verification]

When the long term hub height wind speeds have been calculated, the manufacturer's power curve is used to calculate the gross electrical energy production of each turbine in the wind farm. Application of energy loss factors: To calculate the net energy production of a wind farm, the following loss factors are applied to the gross energy ...
The land between the turbines may be used for agricultural or other purposes. A wind farm may also be located offshore. Almost all large wind turbines have the same design — a horizontal axis wind turbine having an upwind rotor with 3 blades, attached to a nacelle on top of a tall tubular tower.
