Abstract The Askervein Hill project was a collaborative study of boundary-layer flow over low
hills carried out under the auspices of the International Energy Agency Programme of R & D …

Over the past two decades, computational fluid dynamics and particularly the finite volume
method have been increasingly used to predict the performance of wind turbines within their …

This paper introduces a new large‐eddy simulation model, FastEddy®, purpose built for
leveraging the accelerated and more power‐efficient computing capacity of graphics …

Abstract Accurate and reliable Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations of wind
flow over natural complex terrain are important for a wide range of applications including …

Bolund measurements were used for a blind comparison of microscale flow models. Fifty-
seven models ranging from numerical to physical were used, including large-eddy …

The simulation of Atmospheric Boundary Layer (ABL) flows is commonly performed using
commercial CFD codes with RANS turbulence modeling, applying the standard k-ε model …

The current trend of increasing the electricity production from wind energy has led to the
installation of wind farms in areas of greater orographic complexity, raising doubts on the …

The neutrally stratified flow over the Askervein Hill was simulatedusing a terrain-following
coordinatesystem and a two-equation (k-∈) turbulence model. Calculations were performed …

For this study three types of wind models have been defined for simulating surface wind flow
in support of wildland fire management:(1) a uniform wind field (typically acquired from …

A Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model (PHOENICS™ 3.5) previously validated for
wind tunnel measurements is used to simulate the streamwise and vertical velocity flow …
