Study on Actuator Line Modeling of Two NREL 5-MW Wind Turbine Wakes

The wind turbine wakes impact the efficiency and lifespan of the wind farm. Therefore, to improve the wind plant performance, research on wind plant control is essential. The actuator line model (ALM) is proposed to simulate the wind turbine efficiently. This research investigates the National Renew...
