In recent years, the relevance of the interaction between neighboring wind farms has grown steadily. As one farm extracts energy from the wind, a downstream one can systematically experience lower wind speeds which threatens the economic viability of the farm. Significant prog ...
A variety of wind farm control strategies exist in order to reduce unfavorable wake effects in large wind farms. While strategies like wake steering already reached a high maturity level, it is interesting to compare them to more recently proposed strategies. Such a comparison ...
Dynamic wind farm flow control is the art and science to maximize the energy yield of large wind farms. In this paper we will address the problem of large time delays between control actions of the different turbines in the farm and the delayed impact on the downstream turbine ...
Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD) is a fully data-driven method to extract a linear system from experimental or numerical data. It has proven its suitability for modeling wind turbine wakes, particularly those generated with Dynamic Induction Control (DIC), a method to reduce t ...
This paper presents a new framework of the FLOw Redirection and Induction Dynamics (FLORIDyn) model. It is able to dynamically simulate the wake behaviour in wind farms under heterogeneous and changing environmental conditions at a low computational cost. The novelty of this w ...

Wind farm flow control (WFFC) is a topic of interest at several research institutes and industry and certification agencies worldwide. For reliable performance assessment of the technology, the efficiency and the capability of the models applied to WFFC should be carefully eva ...
FLORIDyn is a parametric control-oriented dynamic model suitable to predict the dynamic wake interactions between wind turbines in a wind farm. In order to improve the accuracy of FLORIDyn, this study proposes to calibrate the tuning parameters present in the model by employin ...
