CFD simulations of the Egmond aan Zee wind farm using high resolution mesoscale predictions

Due to the complexity and uncertainty involved in the process of making power from wind, more and more advanced tools are being developed to maintain the sustainability and the growing trend of the wind industry. Prior to the development of a wind …

Wake predictions of full HAWT rotor and actuator disk model CFD simulations using different RANS turbulence models compared to experimental measurements

The development of large scale wind energy projects created the demand for increasingly accurate and efficient models that limit the project’s uncertainties and risk. Wake effects are of great importance and together with the complex terrain effects …
