Vertical wake deflection for floating wind turbines by differential ballast control [PDF]
This paper presents a feasibility analysis of vertical wake steering for floating turbines by differential ballast control. This new concept is based on the idea of pitching the floater with respect to the water surface, thereby achieving a desired tilt ...

Continued results from a field campaign of wake steering applied at a commercial wind farm – Part 2 [PDF]
This paper presents the results of a field campaign investigating the performance of wake steering applied at a section of a commercial wind farm. It is the second phase of the study for which the first phase was reported in Fleming et al. (2019).

Sensitivity analysis of wake steering optimisation for wind farm power maximisation [PDF]
Modern large-scale wind farms consist of multiple turbines clustered together, usually in well-structured formations. Clustering has a number of drawbacks during a wind farm's operation, as some of the downstream turbines will inevitably operate in the ...

Experimental results of wake steering using fixed angles [PDF]
In this article, the authors present a test of wake steering at a commercial wind farm. A single fixed yaw offset, rather than an optimized offset schedule, is alternately applied to an upstream wind turbine, and the effect on downstream turbines is ...

The curled wake model: a three-dimensional and extremely fast steady-state wake solver for wind plant flows [PDF]
Wind turbine wake models typically require approximations, such as wake superposition and deflection models, to accurately describe wake physics. However, capturing the phenomena of interest, such as the curled wake and interaction of multiple wakes, in ...

The Significance of Wind Turbines Layout Optimization on the Predicted Farm Energy Yield [PDF]
Securing energy supply and diversifying the energy sources is one of the main goals of energy strategy for most countries. Due to climate change, wind energy is becoming increasingly important as a method of CO2-free energy generation.

Neuromuscular control of aerodynamic forces and moments in the blowfly, Calliphora vicina [PDF]
Flies are among the most agile of flying insects, a capacity that ultimately results from their nervous system's control over steering muscles and aerodynamic forces during flight.

From wake steering to flow control [PDF]
Abstract. In this paper, we investigate the role of flow structures generated in wind farm control through yaw misalignment. A pair of counter-rotating vortices are shown to be important in deforming the shape of the wake and in explaining the asymmetry of wake steering in oppositely signed yaw angles.
