An analytical model of momentum availability for predicting large wind farm power
Andrew Kirby, Thomas D. Dunstan, Takafumi Nishino
Turbine-wake and farm-atmosphere interactions influence wind farm power production. For large offshore farms, the farm-atmosphere interaction is usually the more significant effect…
Data-driven modelling of turbine wake interactions and flow resistance in large wind farms
Andrew Kirby, François-Xavier Briol, Thomas D. Dunstan +1
Turbine wake and local blockage effects are known to alter wind farm power production in two different ways: (1) by changing the wind speed locally in front of each turbine; and (2…
Two-scale interaction of wake and blockage effects in large wind farms
Andrew Kirby, Takafumi Nishino, Thomas D Dunstan
Turbine wake and farm blockage effects may significantly impact the power produced by large wind farms. In this study, we perform Large-Eddy Simulations (LES) of 50 infinitely larg…
Two-scale momentum theory for time-dependent modelling of large wind farms
Takafumi Nishino, Thomas D. Dunstan
This paper presents a theory based on the law of momentum conservation to define and help analyse the problem of large wind farm aerodynamics. The theory splits the problem into tw…
