Wake 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 ...

Influence 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 ...

Analytical modeling of turbine wakes in yawed conditions

Fernando Porté Agel, Majid Bastankhah

Increasing wind energy production has become a unanimous plan for virtually all the developed countries. In addition to constructing new wind farms, this goal can be achieved by making wind farms more efficient. Control strategies in wind farms, such as ma ...

Influence of atmospheric stability on wind-turbine wakes: A large-eddy simulation study

Fernando Porté Agel, Mahdi Abkar

In this study, large-eddy simulation is combined with a turbine model to investigate the influence of atmospheric thermal stability on wind-turbine wakes. The simulation results show that atmospheric stability has a significant effect on the spatial distri ...

Large-eddy simulation of the diurnal variation of wake flows in a finite-size wind farm

Fernando Porté Agel, Mahdi Abkar, Ahmad Sharifi

In this study, large-eddy simulation (LES) is used to study the evolution of the wind-turbine wakes and their effects on power losses inside an idealized finite-size wind farm in the course of a full diurnal cycle. In the LES, turbulent subgrid-scale stres ...

Instability of the hub vortex, which is a vorticity structure present in wind turbine near-wake and mainly oriented along the streamwise direction, is predicted from wake velocity measurements. In this work, stability analysis is performed on wind tunnel v ...

2014

In this study, large-eddy simulation is used to investigate the influence of atmospheric stability on wind-turbine wakes. In the simulations, tuning-free Lagrangian scale-dependent dynamic models are used to model the subgrid-scale turbulent fluxes, while ...

Large-Eddy Simulation of Turbulent Boundary Layer Flow through Wind Turbines and Wind Farms

Yu-Ting Wu

In this thesis, we develop a new large-eddy simulation (LES) framework to simulate atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) flows through wind turbines and wind farms. A Lagrangian scale-dependent dynamic model is used to compute the Smagorinsky model coefficient ...
