Global ocean wind power sensitivity to surface layer stability
[1] Global ocean wind power has recently been assessed (W. T. Liu et al., 2008) using scatterometry-based 10 m winds. We characterize, for the first time, wind power at 80 m (typical wind turbine hub height) above the global ocean surface, and account for the effects of surface layer stability. Accounting for realistic turbine height and atmospheric stability increases mean global ocean wind po...
متن کاملAtmospheric Boundary Layer Wind Tunnel Applications in Wind Turbine Siting
Atmospheric boundary layer wind tunnels (ABLWTs) have been used for 40 years to simulate the interaction of the wind and earth in the lowest few hundred meters of the atmosphere. ABLWTs are well-suited for investigating flow in complex terrain and have different strengths and weaknesses than numerical modeling. There are a wide variety of applications, including performing wind resource assessm...
متن کاملEffects of wind shear on the atmospheric convective boundary layer structure and evolution
The article reviews past accomplishments and recent advances in conceptual understanding, numerical simulation, and physical interpretation of the wind shear phenomena in the atmospheric convective boundary layer.
متن کاملEvolution of mean wind and turbulence fields in a quasi- baroclinic convective boundary layer with strong wind shears
The growth of the atmospheric convective boundary layer (CBL) is forced mostly by buoyancy production at the surface. However, wind shear has a significant impact on the turbulence structure within the CBL and can contribute significantly to CBL growth when mean winds or wind shear in the lower atmosphere are strong and buoyancy flux from the surface and stratification in the free atmosphere ab...
متن کاملInteraction between large wind farms and the atmospheric boundary layer
Accurate prediction of atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) flow and its interactions with wind turbines is of great importance for optimizing the design and efficiency of wind farms. This study first focuses on recent efforts to develop and validate a large-eddy simulation (LES) framework for wind-energy applications. The subgrid-scale turbulent fluxes of momentum and heat are parameterized using ...
