Wind Turbine Wakes in Directionally Varying Wind Shears
Fernando Porté Agel, Mahdi Abkar
In the atmospheric boundary layer, the Coriolis force associated with the Earth’s rotation induces a spanwise wind shear in addition to the wall-normal one leading to a continuous change in wind direction with height. The spanwise wind shear in directional ...
2019Wake flow in a wind farm during a diurnal cycle
Fernando Porté Agel, Mahdi Abkar, Ahmad Sharifi
The atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) undergoes substantial changes in its structure and dynamics in the course of a day due to the transient nature of forcing factors such as the surface fluxes of heat and momentum. The non-stationary nature of the mean wi ...
Taylor & Francis2016Influence of the Coriolis force on the structure and evolution of wind turbine wakes
Fernando Porté Agel, Mahdi Abkar
In this study, large-eddy simulation combined with a turbine model is used to investigate the effect of vertical wind veer associated with the Coriolis force on the structure and evolution of wind turbine wakes. In order to isolate the Coriolis effect on t ...
