In this study an advanced wake modeling for wind turbine wakes is presented. The wake model is based on the idea presented by Crespo where the Navier-Stokes equations are written in parabolic form with the assumption that the flow is dominant in the wake direction and there is no information traveling upstream. Various components of this model are presented in detail including near wake, root vortex and atmospheric boundary layer stability models. Furthermore the Active Wake Control concept is explained that modifies the pitch and yaw angles of upstream wind turbines in order to increase the overall power production and reduce the loading of the turbines. Finally a validation test case is presented where the results obtained from the wake model are compared to the lidar data obtained from an offshore wind farm.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
