Influence of wind shear and veer on power, thrust, and induction of an actuator disk
Kirby S. Heck, Storm A. Mata, Michael F. Howland
Wind shear and wind veer (gradients of wind speed and direction, respectively) are ubiquitous in the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL), and wind turbines therefore routinely operate…

Modeling the effect of wind speed and direction shear on utility-scale wind turbine power production
Storm A. Mata, Juan José Pena MartÍnez, Jesús Bas Quesada +5
Wind speed and direction variations across the rotor affect power production. As utility-scale turbines extend higher into the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) with larger rotor di…
