  1. 1. Numerical computations of wind turbine wakes and wake interaction

    Author : Karl Nilsson; Dan Henningson; Stefan Ivanell; Thorsten Lutz; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : When wind turbines are placed in farms, wake effects reduce the overall power production. Also, turbine loads are significantly increased since turbulence levels are high within the wake flow. READ MORE

  2. 2. Wind power wake modelling : Development and application of an actuator disc method for industrial utilization

    Author : Nikolaos Simisiroglou; Stefan Ivanell; Thorsten Lutz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Wind power; Offshore wind farm; Wakes; Actuator Disc Method ACD ; Computational Fluid Dynamics CFD ; Reynolds Average Navier–Stokes RANS ; WindSim; PHOENICS;

    Abstract : As a wind turbine extracts energy from the wind it creates a region downstream where the wind velocity is decreased and the urbulence intensity is increased, this region is commonly called the wake region. Today’s wind farms include a large number of wind turbines position in tight layouts. READ MORE
