Numerical simulations for a parametric study of blockage effect on offshore wind farms

Abstract The paper presents a study of the upstream influence of wind farms on the wind speed, which is called blockage effect. A Reynolds Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) numerical model using an actuator disc method was devised and validated using the SCADA data from a Horns Rev 1 wind farm. The maxi...
