A New Wind Turbine CFD Modeling Method Based on a Porous Disk Approach for Practical Wind Farm Design

In this study, the new computational fluid dynamics (CFD) porous disk (PD) wake model was proposed in order to accurately predict the time-averaged wind speed deficits in the wind turbine wake region formed on the downstream side by the 2-MW wind turbine operating at a wind speed of 10 m/s. We use t...
