Germany's expansion target for offshore wind power capacity of 40 GW by the year 2040 can
only be reached if large portions of the Exclusive Economic Zone in the German Bight are …

In this study, large-eddy simulations are performed to investigate the flow inside and around
large finite-size wind farms in conventionally-neutral atmospheric boundary layers. Special …

In this study, an analytical wake model for predicting the mean velocity field downstream of a
wind turbine under veering incoming wind is systematically derived and validated. The new …

Large eddy simulations (LESs) of the atmospheric boundary layer are often performed using
pseudo-spectral methods, which adopt a fringe-region approach to introduce inflow …

In the present study, we use large-eddy simulation (LES) to investigate how a capping
inversion in combination with a stable free atmosphere influences the flow development and …

In this study, large-eddy simulation combined with a turbine model is used to investigate the
effect of vertical wind veer associated with the Coriolis force on the structure and evolution of …

The size of newly installed offshore wind farms increases rapidly. Planned offshore wind
farm clusters have a rated capacity of several gigawatt and a length of up to one hundred …

Planned offshore wind farm clusters have a rated capacity of more than 10 GW. The layout
optimization and yield estimation of wind farms is often performed with computationally …

The performance of wind farms strongly depends on the prevailing atmospheric conditions.
We investigated how baroclinicity, caused by horizontal temperature gradients in the …

Large scale coherent structures in the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) are known to
contribute to the power generation in wind farms. In order to understand the dynamics of …
