Assessing the accuracy of a 3-year high-resolution mesoscale wind farm wake simulation with lidar and satellite radar data

The rapid expansion of wind farm installations in the North Sea results in an increased need for understanding their influence on the local atmosphere, as well as the interactions between them. Wind farm operation and power production are affected by wakes produced both within an...

Investigating wake reproduction of a model-scale wind turbine: experimental measurements versus large eddy simulation with actuator line

Accurate modeling of wind turbine wakes is essential for understanding turbine performance, wake interactions, and structural loading in wind energy applications. This work presents a combined experimental and numerical investigation addressing key gaps in model-scale wind turbin...
