About this Research Topic
Modelling the interaction between the atmospheric boundary layer and individual turbines is still a major challenge addressed in this special issue. Validation using experimental techniques is also an important area. Recent advantages in both modelling, using for example machine learning approaches and novel numerical methods, and experimental techniques provides new possibilities to further understanding of the physics of the atmospheric boundary layer, flow inside wind farms, turbine wakes and spiral systems.
This Research Topic covers the various topics related to the aerodynamics and control of wakes and wind farms. In particular the following topics are of special interest:
• Stability and Turbulence,
• Wake Simulations and modelling,
• Wind Farms,
• Wake Interaction,
• Measurements of Wakes,
• Farm wakes,
• Farm control and optimization.
Keywords: Wakes, Wind Farms, Vortex systems, Farm Wakes, Farm control
