Impact of yaw misalignment on turbine loads in the presence of wind farm blockage

Summary Wake steering is very effective in optimizing the power production of an array of turbines aligned with the wind direction. However, the wind farm behaves as a porous obstacle for the incoming flow, inducing a secondary flow in the lateral direction and a reduction of the upstream wind speed...
