A parametric large-eddy simulation study of wind-farm blockage and gravity waves in conventionally neutral boundary layers

Luca Lanzilao, Johan Meyers

We present a suite of large-eddy simulations of a wind farm operating in conventionally neutral atmospheric boundary layers (CNBLs). A fixed 1.6 GW wind farm is considered for 40 d…

Bayesian uncertainty quantification framework for wake model calibration and validation with historical wind farm power data

Frederik Aerts, Luca Lanzilao, Johan Meyers

The expected growth in wind energy capacity requires efficient and accurate models for wind farm layout optimization, control, and annual energy predictions. Although analytical wa…

An improved fringe-region technique for the representation of gravity waves in large-eddy simulation with application to wind farms

Luca Lanzilao, Johan Meyers

Large-eddy simulations of the atmospheric boundary layer are often performed using pseudo-spectral methods, which adopt a fringe-region approach to introduce inflow boundary condit…

A new wake-merging method for wind-farm power prediction in presence of heterogeneous background velocity fields

Luca Lanzilao, Johan Meyers

Many wind farms are placed near coastal regions or in proximity of orographic obstacles. The meso-scale gradients that develop in these zones make wind farms operating in velocity…

Study of the energy convergence of the Karhunen-Loeve decomposition applied to the large-eddy simulation of a high-Reynolds-number pressure-driven boundary layer

Pieter Bauweraerts, Johan Meyers

We study the energy convergence of the Karhunen-Loève decomposition of the turbulent velocity field in a high-Reynolds-number pressure-driven boundary layer as a function of the nu…

Reconstruction of turbulent flow fields from lidar measurements based on large-eddy simulation

Pieter Bauweraerts, Johan Meyers

We investigate the reconstruction of a turbulent flow field in the atmospheric boundary layer from a time series of lidar measurements, using Large-Eddy Simulations (LES) and a 4D-…
