Similar to other renewable energy sources, wind energy is characterized by a low power
density. Hence, for wind energy to make considerable contributions to the world's overall …

Wind turbine parameterization models, which are often employed to avoid the computational
cost of resolving the blade aerodynamics, are critical for the capability of large-eddy …

We compare wind farm large eddy simulations with the EPFL wind tunnel measurement by
Chamorro and Porté-Agel (Bound-Lay. Meteorol. 136, 515 (2010) and Energies 4, 1916 …

Previous research has revealed the need for a validation study that considers several wake
quantities and code types so that decisions on the trade‐off between accuracy and …

The actuator line method is implemented into a residual-based variational multiscale (VMS)
fluid modelling framework to simulate airflow around a wind turbine. In the actuator line …

Large-eddy simulation (LES) of a wind turbine under uniform inflow is performed using an
actuator line model (ALM). Predictions from four LES research codes from the wind energy …

Wake effect causes fatigue increase on the horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) blades. This
wake-induced fatigue has significant impacts on the efficiency and lifespan of the whole …

This is a summary of the results of the fourth blind test workshop that was held in Trondheim
in October 2015. Herein, computational predictions on the performance of two in-line model …

Lift, drag and surface pressure measurements are performed on a wing section of the NREL
S826 wind turbine airfoil at eight Reynolds numbers ranging from 0. 5× 1 0 5 to 6. 0× 1 0 5 …

This study shows that turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) estimates, derived from static LiDARs in
Doppler Beam Swing (DBS) mode, permit a qualitative and quantitative characterization and …
