“…The behavior of systems at these scales demonstrated many enhanced functional properties [6], [7] such as thermal conductivity, optical properties, electrical conductivity and many more [7]. Such enhanced behavior has been used in many industrial, health care and technological applications to facilitate, enhanced heat transfer [8], [9], cancer cell detection [1], [2], advanced characterization [10], non-Newtonian fluid flow [11] and functional materials development [12], [13], etc.…”

“…Wind energy has become a major focus in the push to provide renewable energy to a growing world population. Comparing with solar energy, wind energy becomes a versatile source providing a year-round operation without the dependence of cyclical availability of the source (solar insolation) [1]. Wind turbine energy production influences due to operating conditions and related research is important for the design of maximum efficiency wind farms.…”

Through this work, we have analyzed wake to wake interactions between horizontal axis wind turbines located in line to each other. We have quantified wake interactions based on hot wire anemometric data and statistical correlations using a model wind farm fabricated inside a wind tunnel. The results of these measurements show that a high level of turbulent kinetic energy is generated at the region of intersection between rotor and stator wakes. Numerical models of wake interactions of wind turbines under varying turbulent inflow conditions using the actuator line technique and EllipSys3D Navier-Stokes solver were carried out to resolve dynamics of wake interactions. Our results showed good agreement with field measurements of wake deficit and turbulence intensity for inline and eccentric turbine arrangements.
