We apply a modified proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) to large eddy simulation data of a wind turbine wake in a turbulent atmospheric boundary layer. The turbine is modeled as an actuator disk. Our analysis mainly focuses on the pragmatic identification of spatial modes, which yields a low...

Dissection of the power output in a row of working turbines and the reliance on wind course in respect to the column heading is examined. The point is to portray the extent of the wake impacts and give a sign of the indication of wind bearing. The target is to delineate whether the uniting of...

Offshore floating wind turbines (OFWTs) present unique aerodynamic analysis challenges. Motion–derived velocity perturbations in the wake necessitate higher–fidelity aerodynamic analysis methods than the ubiquitous momentum balance techniques currently in use. A more physically–sound...

In the design of a wind farm, the placement of turbines is an important factor that affects the efficiency and profit, but automatic placement of turbines is still a challenging problem.
