In this work the accuracy of the Actuator Line Model (ALM) in Large Eddy Simulations of wind turbine flow is studied under the specific conditions of very coarse spatial resolutions. For finely-resolved conditions, it is known that ALM…

In large wind farms, wake distribution behind a wind turbine causes a considerable reduction of wind velocity for downstream wind turbines, resulting in a significant amount of power loss. Therefore, it is very crucial to predict wind…

We evaluate the accuracy of the actuator line model (ALM) approach by performing simulations for the NREL~5~MW wind turbine in uniform inflow using three large eddy simulation codes. The power and thrust coefficients obtained using the…

To bridge the gap between high and low fidelity numerical modeling tools for vertical-axis (or cross-flow) turbines (VATs or CFTs), an actuator line model (ALM) was developed and validated for both a high and a medium solidity vertical-axis…

Due to the multitude of scales present in realistic oceanic conditions, resolving the surface stress is computationally intensive, motivating modeling approaches. In this work, a dynamic wave drag model is developed for Large Eddy…

Numerical models of the flow and wakes due to turbines operating within a real-scale offshore wind farm can lead to a prohibitively large computational cost, particularly when considering blade-resolved simulations. With the introduction of…

Classical actuator disk theory, developed more than a century ago, provides an idealised description of turbine rotor performance. It treats a rotor as an infinitesimally-thin permeable disk and applies the governing flow equations over a…

We compare three different methodologies for simulation of turbulent flow past a vertical axis wind turbine: (i) full resolution of the turbine blades in a Direct Finite Element Simulation (DFS), (ii) implicit representation of the turbine…

Explicit filtering in large eddy simulation (LES) of a turbulent barotropic flow on the sphere in spectral space is studied and compared to implicit filtering. Here, a smooth filter is applied to the nondivergent barotropic vorticity…

The actuator line model (ALM) is a commonly used method to represent lifting surfaces such as wind turbine blades within Large-Eddy Simulations (LES). In the ALM the lift and drag forces are replaced by an imposed body force which is…
