This paper reviews the current state of the art in the numerical evaluation of wind flow over
different types of topographies. Numerical simulations differing from one another by the type …

An experimental and numerical investigation on the flow over two-dimensional hilly terrain is
presented. Experiments for single hills and continous double hills are performed in a …

Most practitioners within wind energy have only a very basic knowledge about meteorology,
leading to a lack of understanding of one of the most fundamental subjects in wind energy …

The oncoming turbulence is of particular importance with respect to the investigation of the
turbulent flow fields over hilly terrain, which plays an essential role regarding the …

Large eddy simulation is applied to study the turbulent flow fields over a 3-D hill and a 2-D
ridge with smooth ground. The mean velocities as well as the turbulent fluctuations are …

The cost of energy produced by onshore wind turbines is among the lowest available;
however, onshore wind turbines are often positioned in a complex terrain, where the wind …

A wind tunnel investigation of the wind flow over two-dimensional, 1: 1000 scale hills in a
simulated atmospheric boundary layer has been performed. The mean speed and …

In this study, flow behaviors and vortex morphology around the sloping terrain that is
covered by an atmospheric boundary layer are investigated using a combination of …

An accurate description of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) is a prerequisite for
computational fluid dynamics (CFD) wind studies. This includes taking into account the …

An experimental study was conducted to investigate the aeromechanics and wake
interferences of wind turbines sited on two-dimensional hills with different slopes. First …
