Atmospheric Turbulence Effects on Wind-Turbine Wakes: An LES Study (2012, background): “This outcome is consistent with the results reported by Wu and Porté-Agel [22] in validations of the same LES framework against wind-tunnel measurements.”
On the interaction between a turbulent open channel flow and an axial-flow turbine (2013, background): “In wind turbine wakes, meandering motion appears to depend on the thrust and tip-speed ratio (Medici & Alfredsson 2008) and to be affected by thermal stability (Chamorro & Porté-Agel 2010).”
Wind-Turbine Wakes in a Convective Boundary Layer: A Wind-Tunnel Study (2013, methodology): “Specifically, physical simulations of thermally stratified boundary layers have been carried out by e.g., Meroney and Melbourne (1992), Fedorovich et al. (1996), Ohya (2001), Ohya and Uchida (2004), Chamorro and Porté-Agel (2010), and Hancock and Pascheke (2010).”
Wind-Turbine and Wind-Farm Flows: A Review (2019, background): “The main effects on standalone turbines are due to the changes in mean shear and turbulence intensity of the incoming flow, associated with changes in thermal stability, as shown in numerous wind-tunnel experiments (Chamorro and Porté-Agel 2010; Zhang et al. 2013b; Hancock and Pascheke 2014), field ”
