ABSTRACT Optimising turbine layouts to maximise power output is crucial for wind farm development, particularly in complex terrain where analytical wake models fail to capture key flow physics. We present the first application of Bayesian optimisation (BO) combined with large eddy simulations (LES) for utility‐scale wind farm layout optimisation in ...

Comparison of Power and Thrust Performance for a Fixed and Floating Offshore Wind Turbine
ABSTRACT Floating offshore wind turbines have been identified as a critical technology for sustainable electricity generation. Wind resource assessment is used to determine optimal locations for floating wind farms. However, current methodologies do not account for performance differences between fixed and floating turbines due to wind‐ and wave ...

Wind Tunnel Assessment of Dynamic Induction Control Under Varying Inflow Wind Directions
ABSTRACT Dynamic induction control (DIC), also known as pulse control, is a wake‐mixing strategy intended to improve wind farm efficiency by mitigating wake‐induced power losses. It typically employs harmonic collective blade pitching to excite wake instabilities, forming coherent pulsing structures that enhance turbulent mixing and accelerate wake ...

ABSTRACT Validating engineering wake models under real‐world operational conditions is essential for improving wind farm performance predictions. This study utilises a unique dataset from the Lillgrund offshore wind farm, collected during the Horizon 2020 TotalControl project campaign, integrating synchronous Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition ...
