Evolution of flow characteristics through finite-sized wind farms and the influence of the wind-farm configuration on modulating this evolution is explored through numerical simulations. The principal aim for the study is to identify regions of flow-adjustment and flow equilibrium within the wind farm. Towards this aim, a suite of five large-eddy simulations (LES) of the neutral atmospheric boundary...
Regardless of the evolution of wind energy harvesting, the way in which turbines obtain in-situ meteorological information remains the same - i.e. using traditional wind vanes and cup anemometers installed at the turbine's nacelle, right behind the blades. As a result, misalignment with the mean wind vector is common and energy losses up to 4.6% can be experienced as well as increases in loading and...
