The increasing size of wind turbines, with rotors already spanning more than 150 m diameter and hub heights above 100 m, requires proper modeling the atmospheric boundary layer ( ABL ) from surface to free atmosphere. Furthermore, large farm arrays create their own structure unique physics. This poses significant challenges traditional engineering models that rely on surface‐layer theories simulate flow in around farms. However, adopting an approach offers opportunity better integrate design...
Abstract. Numerical wind resource modelling across scales from the mesoscale to turbine scale is of increasing interest due expansion offshore energy. Offshore farm wakes can last several tens kilometres downstream and thus affect resources a large area. So far, scale-specific models have been developed but it remains unclear how well different model types represent intra-farm wakes, farm-to-farm as wake recovery behind farm. Thus, in present analysis simulation set complexity, fidelity,...

The primary control on the magnitude of power losses induced by wind turbine wakes in large farms is hub-height speed via its link to thrust coefficient. Hence, at low moderate speeds (between cut-in and rated speeds) when coefficient high, wake are proportionally larger decrease be virtually undetectable above speeds. Wind direction also critical. Not only does it determine effective spacing between turbines but distribution primarily determined synoptic forcing typically has a predominant...
