Two-way coupling of gravity waves and wind farm wakes: a reduced-order boundary-layer model

Hossein A. Kafiabad, Majid Bastankhah

This paper develops a reduced-order numerical framework for modelling the two-way coupling between gravity waves and turbulent wakes in large-scale wind farms. Starting with the no…

Optimal wind farm energy and reserve scheduling incorporating wake interactions

Marin Mabboux-Fort, Majid Bastankhah, Peter C Matthews +1

This paper proposes a novel approach for optimal energy and reserve scheduling of wind farms by explicitly modelling wake interactions to enhance market participation and operation…

Assessing engineering wake models against operational data: insights from the Lillgrund wind farm wake steering campaign

Diego Siguenza-Alvarado, Matthew Harrison, Mohammadreza Mohammadi +4

Validating engineering wake models under real-world operational conditions is essential for improving wind farm performance predictions. This study uses a unique dataset from the L…

Generalised actuator disk theory: wake development with turbulent entrainment

Majid Bastankhah, Peter E. Hydon, Carl Shapiro +2

Classical actuator disk theory, developed more than a century ago, provides an idealised description of turbine rotor performance. It treats a rotor as an infinitesimally-thin perm…

Analytical modelling of wind-turbine wake turbulence in neutral atmospheric boundary layers

Frédéric Blondel, Erwan Jézéquel, Helen Schottenhamml +1

So-called engineering or analytical wind farm flow solvers typically build upon two submodels: one for the velocity deficit and one for the wake-added turbulence intensity. While v…

Analytical solution for the cumulative wake of wind turbines in wind farms

Majid Bastankhah, Bridget L. Welch, Luis A. Martínez-Tossas +2

This paper solves an approximate form of conservation of mass and momentum for a turbine in a wind farm array. The solution is a fairly simple explicit relationship that predicts t…
