Improvements to the dynamic wake meandering model by incorporating the turbulent Schmidt number

Fernando Porté Agel, Peter Andreas Brugger, Corey Dean Markfort

Predictions of the dynamic wake meandering model (DWMM) were compared to flow measurements of a scanning Doppler lidar mounted on the nacelle of a utility-scale wind turbine. We observed that the wake meandering strength of the DWMM agrees better with the ...

In this thesis, we explored the effect of certain terrain-induced flow phenomena on the development of wind turbines sited in complex terrain. A combined experimental and analytical approach is used to study wind turbine wakes in different types of complex ...

An improved analytical framework for flow prediction inside and downstream of wind farms

Fernando Porté Agel, Marwa Souaiby

This study evaluates available analytical wake models for flow prediction inside and downstream of wind farms of different sizes and layouts using large-eddy simulation (LES), and introduces an enhanced analytical framework. All the tested analytical wake ...

An improved statistical wake meandering model

Fernando Porté Agel, Peter Andreas Brugger, Corey Dean Markfort

A new statistical wake meandering (SWM) model is proposed that improves on existing models in the literature. Compared to the existing SWM models, the proposed model has a closed description that does not require simulations to create look-up tables while ...

IOP Publishing2024

In this thesis, we explore the best practice of simulating the wakes of the turbines under active yaw control (AYC) using large-eddy simulation (LES). In the first study, we validate the blade-element actuator disk model (ADM-BE) for a yawed wind turbine. ...

EPFL2023

Dynamic control strategies, such as dynamic induction control [1], were reported as efficient and beneficial in improving wind farm power production. A recent work based on computational fluid dynamics simulation [2] shows that by controlling wake meanderi ...

Wind‐Induced Hypolimnetic Upwelling Between the Multi‐Depth Basins of Lake Geneva During Winter: An Overlooked Deepwater Renewal Mechanism?

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Rafael Sebastian Reiss

Combining field observations, 3D hydrodynamic modeling, and particle tracking, we investigated wind-induced interbasin exchange between the Petit Lac (PL) (depth 75 m) and Grand Lac (GL) (depth 309 m) basins of Lake Geneva in early winter. Following a stro ...

2022

A Pulse-Doppler Radar Wind Profiler (RWP) is an active remote sensing instrument used in meteorology whose output product is a 3D wind field. A new method to retrieve radial wind velocity from spectrograms using Convolutional Neural Networks is introduced. ...

With rising levels of wind power penetration in global electricity production, the relevance of wind power prediction is growing. More accurate forecasts reduce the required total amount of energy reserve capacity needed to ensure grid reliability and the ...

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 ...
