In this chapter the main effects of wind turbines on the performance of radar systems have been explained. The radar signature of wind turbine clutter is unique and then, it requires a special treatment when developing mitigation techniques. WTC clutter remains spatially static, but it fluctuates continuously in time.

Simulation of vorticity wind turbines
There are a wide variety of devices behaving essentially as flexible and elastic systems while interacting dynamically with fluids, usually water or air, under normal operating conditions. Interactions of this kind involve a double complexity of the dynamics, as the systems go through large deformation due to the flow actions, and simultaneously, the ...

Evaluation of Tip Loss Corrections to AD/NS Simulations of Wind Turbine Aerodynamic Performance
The Actuator Disc/Navier-Stokes (AD/NS) method has played a significant role in wind farm simulations. It is based on the assumption that the flow is azimuthally uniform in the rotor plane, and thus, requires a tip loss correction to take into account ...

Experimental study on the characteristics of wind turbine wake field considering yaw conditions
This paper explores the wake of a wind turbine yaw and its influence on the output power of the downstream wind turbine. A wind turbine model (hub height and diameter of 1.2 m and 1.0 m, respectively) was used in the experiments, and the yaw angle of the

Influence of atmospheric conditions on the power production of utility-scale wind turbines in yaw misalignment [PDF]
The intentional yaw misalignment of leading, upwind turbines in a wind farm, termed wake steering, has demonstrated potential as a collective control approach for wind farm power maximization. The optimal control strategy, and resulting effect of wake steering on wind farm power production, are in part dictated by the power degradation of the upwind ...

Noise Measurement of a Wind Turbine using Thick Blades with Blunt Trailing Edge [PDF]
The noise generated by wind turbines can potentially cause significant harm to the ecological environment and the living conditions of residents. Therefore, a proper assessment of wind turbine noise is crucial. The IEC 61400-11 standard provides standardized guidelines for measuring turbine noise, facilitating the comparison of noise characteristics ...
