Design and Stability Analysis of an Offshore Floating Multi-Wind Turbine Platform
The multi-wind turbine platform technology has the potential to harness the significant source of offshore wind energy in deep waters. However, the wake interference between the turbines on the multi-wind turbine platform can cause a reduction in power ...

Simulating wind turbine interactions using the vorticity transport equations [PDF]
The aerodynamic interactions that can occur within a wind farm result in the constituent turbines generating a lower power output than would be possible if each of the turbines were operated in isolation.

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.

Predicting wind turbine blade loads using vorticity transport and RANS methodologies [PDF]
Two computational methods, one based on the solution of the vorticity transport equa- tion, and a second based on the solution of the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equa- tions, have been used to simulate the aerodynamic performance of a horizontal ...

Wind tunnel experiments on wind turbine wakes in yaw: Redefining the wake width [PDF]
Abstract. This paper presents an investigation of wakes behind model wind turbines, including cases of yaw misalignment. Two different turbines were used and their wakes are compared, isolating effects of boundary conditions and turbine specifications. Laser Doppler Anemometry was used to scan a full plane of a wake normal to the main fow direction, 6 ...

Curled-Skewed Wakes behind Yawed Wind Turbines Subject to Veered Inflow
This work presents a new engineering analytical model that predicts the effect of both the turbine yaw misalignment and the inflow wind veer on the wake flow distribution downwind of a wind turbine.

Wake Management in Wind Farms: An Adaptive Control Approach
Advanced wind measuring systems like Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) is useful for wake management in wind farms. However, due to uncertainty in estimating the parameters involved, adaptive control of wake center is needed for a wind farm layout ...
