Wind farm global blockage as an adverse pressure gradient problem: turbulence amplification and spectral modification in the induction region of a model wind farm
Adrian T. McGlade, Oliver R. H. Buxton
The induction region of a model wind farm is investigated experimentally as an adverse pressure gradient (APG) turbulent boundary layer problem, using hot-wire anemometry. An array…

Inter-turbine spacing and flow unsteadiness effects on wake-induced blade dynamics
Francisco J. G. de Oliveira, Adrian T. McGlade, Zahra Sharif Khodaei +1
Wind turbines operating downstream of others in a farm are routinely exposed to waked inflow, with reduced mean velocity and elevated turbulence driving power deficits and addition…
