As wind energy expands worldwide, the demand of reliable, fast, cost-efficient wind turbine
wake models is growing. This is a significant challenge as wind turbines face various inflow …

The evolution of the mean velocity and the turbulence downstream of wind turbine wakes
within the atmospheric boundary layer has been studied over the past decades, but an …

The MOMENTA project combines in situ and remote sensing observations, wind tunnel
experiments, and numerical modeling to improve the knowledge of wake structure in wind …

We propose an experimental study on the influence of the tip speed ratio on the spatial
development of a wind turbine wake. To accomplish this, a scaled wind turbine is tested in a …

This study aims to evaluate the effect of freestream turbulence (FST) on wakes produced by
discs with different porosity. The wakes are exposed to various freestream turbulence" …

The interaction between turbulent axisymmetric wakes plays an important role in many
industrial applications, notably in the modeling of wind farms. While the nonequilibrium high …

Within the energy transition, more and more wind turbines are clustered in big wind farms,
often offshore. Therefore, an optimal positioning of the wind turbines is crucial to optimize …

As covered in earlier chapters, the key global parameter used to choose a porous disc
surrogate as representative of a rotating wind turbine, is the drag coefficient CD. This …

Wind energy stands out as a capital component of the renewable energy portfolio and has
accordingly shown an exponential growth in recent years. Due to the limited regions with …

Analytical wake models describe the main wake statistics using a reduced number of
parameters: for instance, the Gaussian wake model relies on the single parameter k∗ to …
