Segmented Gurney Flaps for Improved Wind Turbine Wake Recovery
When wind passes through the rotor of a wind turbine, the velocity is decreased while turbulence is increased. The region of decreased wind speed behind the rotor is known as the wind turbine wake and is bounded by a complex structure of helical vortices.

Wind turbine wakes for wind energy [PDF]
During recent years, wind energy has moved from an emerging technology to a nearly competitive technology. This fact, coupled with an increasing global focus on environmental concern and a political desire of a certain level of diversification in the energy supply, ensures wind energy an important role in the future electricity market.

Leading effect for wind turbine wake models
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 conditions, that include turbulence, inhomogeneities/instationarities and upstream wakes.

Wake steering of multirotor wind turbines [PDF]
Abstract In this paper, wake steering is applied to multirotor turbines to determine whether it has the potential to reduce wind plant wake losses. Through application of rotor yaw to multirotor turbines, a new degree of freedom is introduced to wind farm control such that wakes can be expanded, channelled or redirected to improve ...

Upward Shift of Wind Turbine Wakes in Large Wind Farms
A detailed description of wake characteristics is essential for optimizing wind farm performance. Compared with the wake of a stand-alone wind turbine, less attention has been paid to wind turbine wakes in large wind farms.
