Boundary-layer instabilities for a finned cone at Mach=6, $Re=8.4 \times 10^6$ [m$^{-1}$], and zero incidence angle are examined using linear stability methods of varying fidelity and maturity, following earlier analysis presented in…
This study examines the combined impact of the chord-to-radius ratio (c/R), blade camber, and preset pitch on cross-flow turbine performance. While prior research has examined individual effects of c/R and pitch, this work focuses on their…
Experimental assessment of safe and precise flight control algorithms for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) under gusty wind conditions requires the capability to generate a large range of velocity profiles. In this study, we employ a small…
We apply the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) to large eddy simulation data of a wind turbine wake in a turbulent atmospheric boundary layer. The turbine is modeled as an actuator disk. Our analyis mainly focuses on the question…
Turbulent flows are fundamental in engineering and the environment, but their chaotic and three-dimensional (3-D) nature makes them computationally expensive to simulate. In this work, a dimensionality reduction technique is investigated to…
Airborne wind energy is a new renewable technology that promises to deliver electricity at low costs and in large quantities. Despite the steadily growing interest in this field, very limited results with real-world data have been reported…
Actuator line model has been widely employed in wind turbine simulations. However, the standard actuator line model does not include a model for the turbine nacelle which can significantly impact turbine wake characteristics as shown in the…
In recent years, wind turbine yaw misalignment that tends to degrade the turbine power production and impact the blade fatigue loads raises more attention along with the rapid development of large-scale wind turbines. The state-of-the-art…
In the wind energy industry, it is of great importance to develop models that accurately forecast the power output of a wind turbine, as such predictions are used for wind farm location assessment or power pricing and bidding, monitoring,…

Analytical wake models provide a computationally efficient means to predict velocity distributions in wind turbine wakes in the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL). Most existing models are developed for neutral atmospheric conditions and…
This paper presents two novel analytical wake models for crosswind kite power systems. One is developed based on the continuity equation, and the other based on both the continuity and momentum equations. For each model, equations for the…
Despite substantial growth in wind energy technology in recent decades, aerodynamic modeling of wind turbines relies on momentum models derived in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, which are well-known to break down under flow regimes…
Wind turbine wakes play a central role in determining wind farm performance, yet their spatial organization remains only partially understood. Here, we apply a spatially localized multifractal analysis to quantify the strength of…
The purpose of this work is to investigate the flow around a fixed NACA0012 airfoil profile at different angles of attack using wall-resolved LES. The profile has a chord length of c=0.1 m and is exposed to a flow at a Reynolds number of…
Power loss mechanisms in large wind farms are complex due to the multiscale nature of wind farm aerodynamics. Recent studies based on the two-scale momentum theory have brought new insights into this field; however, most of them have been…
The study of the exchange of momentum and energy between wave components of the turbulent velocity field, the so-called triad interactions, offers a unique way of visualizing and describing turbulence. Most often, this study has been…
Accurately modeling wind turbine wakes is essential for optimizing wind farm performance but remains a persistent challenge. While the dynamic wake meandering (DWM) model captures unsteady wake behavior, it suffers from near-wake…
In this paper, wake steering is applied to multirotor turbines to determine whether it has the potential to reduce wind plant wake losses. Through application of rotor yaw to multirotor turbines, a new degree of freedom is introduced to…
