How wind speed shear and directional veer affect the power production of a megawatt-scale operational wind turbine
<p>Most megawatt-scale wind turbines align themselves into the wind as defined by the wind speed at or near the center of the rotor (hub height). However, both wind speed and wind direction can change with height across the area swept by the turbine blades. A turbine aligned to hub-height wind...
