Vortex BLOCKS is the natural evolution of FARM. It has the same advanced wind modeling technology that has been used in hundreds of projects and is extensively validated, but it goes a step beyond.
We store now the full simulations on our servers, allowing customized deliverables to be generated after a run has finished. This feature includes extraction of modeled wind data and time series at any location in the requested domain, user-defined filters for WRG & GIS layers, and improved 4D remodeling.
As BLOCKS delivers high-resolution wind resource time series in addition to WRG & GIS files, we compute a specific one-year period or a long-term representative. In this case, we simulate a 365 consecutive day period as the most representative of the long term and use the well-tested “rolling one-year” method employed in our LES product.
Vortex BLOCKS enhances advanced wind modeling workflows by providing actionable insights from fully processed datasets, enabling strategic evaluation of site-specific wind patterns, seasonal variability, and atmospheric stability. By integrating modeled wind resource data with innovative filtering and extraction tools, engineers can optimize project design, support energy forecasting, and improve operational planning. This approach ensures a seamless connection between high-resolution virtual simulations and real-world applications, delivering reliable, decision-ready information for efficient wind farm development and advanced wind resource assessment.
In addition to the standard use cases, Vortex BLOCKS is highly recommended for engineers and developers seeking advanced wind modeling capabilities. It allows detailed analysis of site-specific variability, supports filtering of modeled wind resource data by multiple environmental and temporal factors, and facilitates long-term planning for wind farm development. By providing high-resolution datasets and flexible extraction tools, BLOCKS enables optimization of turbine layouts, precise energy forecasting, and enhanced operational decision-making across both onshore and offshore projects.
These advanced capabilities enable engineers to perform detailed wind modeling and in-depth wind resource assessment across complex terrains and offshore environments. By leveraging high-resolution modeled wind data, BLOCKS supports optimization of turbine layouts, energy yield projections, and risk analysis for wind farm development. The flexible extraction and filtering options allow customization of datasets to specific project requirements, ensuring reliable inputs for both preliminary studies and detailed design verification. This combination of automation, precision, and adaptability makes BLOCKS a comprehensive tool for informed decision-making in modern wind energy projects.
