Abstract Increasing the efficiency of wind farms is important for speeding up the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources.

Abstract:
Low-fidelity engineering wake models are often combined with linear superposition laws to predict wake velocities across wind farms under steady atmospheric conditions. While convenient for wind farm planning and long-term performance evaluation, such models are unable to capture the time-varying nature of the waked velocity field, as they are agnostic to the complex aerodynamic interactions among wind turbines and the effects of atmospheric boundary layer turbulence.

Wind energy is one of the fastest growing renewable energy sources in the U.S. Wind turbine wakes change the flow field within wind farms and reduce power generation.

In contrast, a simple analytical approach can provide reasonably accurate estimates of wake effects on flow and power. To reducing errors in wake modeling, one must calibrate the model based on a specific wind farm setting. The purpose of this res

Abstract. Mesoscale meteorological phenomena, including atmospheric gravity waves (AGWs) and including trapped lee waves (TLWs), can result from flow over topography or coastal transition in the presence of stable atmospheric stratification, particularly with strong capping inversions. Satellite images show that topographically forced TLWs frequently occur around near-coastal offshore wind farms. Yet current understanding of how they interact with individual turbines and whole farm energy output is limited. This parametric study investigates the potential impact of TLWs on a UK near-coastal of

Abstract. The importance of wind power forecast is commonly recognized because it represents a useful tool for grid integration and facilitates the energy trading. This work considers an example of power forecast for a wind farm in the Apennines in Central Italy. The orography around the site is complex and the horizontal resolution of the wind forecast has an important role. To explore this point we compared the performance of two 48 h wind power forecasts using the winds predicted by the Regional Atmospheric Modeling System (RAMS) for the year 2011.

We investigate the use of wind farms to provide secondary frequency regulation for a power grid using a model-based receding horizon control framework. In order to enable real-time implementation, the control actions are computed based on a time-varying one-dimensional wake model. This model describes wake advection and wake interactions, both of which play an important role in wind farm power production. In order to test the control strategy, it is implemented in a large-ed

Abstract:
In a wind farm some wind turbines may be affected by multiple upwind wakes. The commonly used approach in engineering to simulate the interaction effect of different wakes is to combine the single analytical wake model and the interaction model. The higher turbulence level and shear stress profile generated by upwind turbines in the superposed area leads to faster wake recovery. The existing interaction models are all analytical models based on some simple assumptions of superposition, which cannot characterize this phenomenon. Therefore, in this study, a mixing coefficient is introduced into

The model consists of the wake width and wake wind speed. The equation to calculate the rotor thrust, which is calculated by the wake wind speed profiles, was also formulated.
