The impact of turbulence intensity and atmospheric stability on power deficits due to wind turbine wakes at Horns Rev wind farm

TL;DR: In this paper, the power deficit along rows of wind turbines have been determined for different inflow directions and wind speed intervals, and a method to classify the atmospheric stability based on the Bulk-Ri number has been implemented.

First in situ evidence of wakes in the far field behind offshore wind farms

TL;DR: The first direct in situ measurements of the existence and shape of large wind farm wakes by a specially equipped research aircraft in 2016 and 2017 confirm wake lengths of more than tens of kilometres under stable atmospheric conditions, with maximum wind speed deficits of 40%, and enhanced turbulence.

Characterization of wind turbulence by higher‐order statistics

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a synthetic time series based on the superposition of one-pointstatistics, and show how it naturally fails to reproduce information of general two-point statistics.

Simplified critical mudline bending moment spectra of offshore wind turbine support structures

TL;DR: In this article, a generalized attempt has been made to evaluate the relative magnitudes of these four loadings by transforming them into bending moment spectra using site-specific and turbine-specific data.

An Introduction to Boundary Layer Meteorology

TL;DR: In this article, the boundary layer is defined as the boundary of a boundary layer, and the spectral gap is used to measure the spectral properties of the boundary layers of a turbulent flow.

Open Ocean Momentum Flux Measurements in Moderate to Strong Winds

TL;DR: In this article, a comparison of the dissipation and Reynolds flux results shows excellent agreement on average, for wind speeds from 4 to 20 m s−1, for a modified Gill propeller-vane anemometer was used to measure the velocity.

Wind stress on a water surface

TL;DR: In this paper, the vertical distribution of horizontal mean wind in the lowest 8 metres over a reservoir (1·6 km × 1 km) has been measured using sensitive anemometers freely exposed from a fixed mast in water 16 m deep, the fetch being more than 1 km.

Review of Drag Coefficients over Oceans and Continents

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of wind stress and wind profiles over the ocean reported in the literature over the past 10 years are consistent with Charnock's (1955) relation between aerodynamic roughness length (z0) and friction velocity (u*), viz, z0= αu*2/g, with α= 0.41±0.0144 and g= 9.81 m s−2.

Wind Stress and Heat Flux over the Ocean in Gale Force Winds

TL;DR: In this paper, an offshore stable platform has been instrumented with wind turbulence, temperature and wave height sensors, and data from this platform have been analyzed by the eddy correlation method to obtain wind stress and heat flux at wind speeds from 6 to 22 m s−1 in a deep-water wave regime, significantly extending the range of available measurements.
