Collective wind farm operation based on a predictive model increases utility-scale energy production
Michael F. Howland, Jesus Bas Quesada, Juan Jose Pena Martinez +5
Wind turbines located in wind farms are operated to maximize only their own power production. Individual operation results in wake losses that reduce farm energy. In this study, we…

Wake Structure of Wind Turbines in Yaw under Uniform Inflow Conditions
Michael F. Howland, Juliaan Bossuyt, Luis A. Martinez-Tossas +2
Reducing wake losses in wind farms by deflecting the wakes through turbine yawing has been shown to be a feasible wind farm controls approach. Nonetheless, the effectiveness of yaw…
