This numerical investigation employs Large Eddy Simulation (LES) coupled with Actuator Disk Model (ADM) to evaluate wind farm layout optimization strategies. The study presents a systematic analysis of aligned,
The yaw-based wake control strategy has been a research focus of the wind energy and fluid mechanics community. Howland et al. [9] studied the wake deflection behind a yawed rotor by means of wind tunnel experiments and large eddy simulation (LES). In their study, the wind turbine was rep...
In a large wind farm, the wakes of upstream and downstream wind turbines can interfere with each other, affecting the overall power output of the wind farm

To extend the knowledge about turbine-to-turbine interplay in tidal arrays, high-fidelity numerical simulations using a Large-Eddy Simulation-Actuator Line Method (LES-ALM) are carried out to quantify the impact of row spacing. The developed Digital Offshore FArm Simulator (DOFAS) validates well ...
The studies suggest relatively low limits, ranging from 1 to 3 W/m2 [101,175] for onshore, and up to 6.7 W/m2 for very large offshore wind farm installations [100]. However, these studies do not consider additional technical considerations (like array losses and transport/distribution ...
is growing: annual production of seaweed increased by an average of 13% between 2015 and 2020, with 3.5 Mt of dry weight (~1 MtC) harvested globally in 202019. Although most farming today occurs in the coastal waters of China and Indonesia, technology to farm offshore is in development20...
