• The shape information of wind farms was automatically extracted and compressed.
• The models of boundary constraints were applied to wind farm optimal micro-siting.
• Simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of the boundary constraint models.
Landscape constraints inevitably cause the irregularity of the shape or boundary of a wind farm, which was not fully considered in previous literature. In this paper, a single-boundary constraint model and a novel multi-boundary constraint model incorporated with ray intersection method are developed to quantify the irregular boundary constraint for wind farm micro-siting optimization. In order to obtain high-fidelity wind farm shape information, an edge detection algorithm is employed to extract wind farm contour data from digital maps, and an optimal polygonal approximation algorithm is applied to compress the contour data so as to make the computation of boundary constraints less time-consuming. Simulations of four commercial wind farms comprehensively demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed boundary constraint models and the significance of irregular-shape wind farm micro-siting optimization.
