  3. 2. An Experimental Investigation of Wind-farm Flows

    University essay from KTH/Mekanik

    Author : Blas Muro; [2014]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this thesis, fundamental properties of the turbulent ow above di erent wind-farm models were determined by means of wind-tunnel measurements. The assessed wind farms consisted in two staggered congurations, and two inline congurations, where two di erent streamwise spacings were evaluated. READ MORE
