Wake and Wind farm aerodynamics Committee

Background and Vision

Increasing research in wakes

Research in wakes has evolved dramatically the last decade and are still increasing, hence there is an increasing interest and need for a common forum.

The technical committee for wakes and wind farm aerodynamics has been established since 2021 and gather activities in this field within the EAWE community and collects experts from all around the world sharing their knowledge in this field. We coordinate existing activities and initialize new.

The committee has since more than 10 years organized the biannual Wake Conference hosted in Visby, Sweden.

The committee meet regularly on-line, while face-to-face meetings are held in connection with other planned seminars or conferences of EAWE (for example Torque or WESC conferences).

Objectives

Gather international Expertise within the field
Organize monthly on-line seminars
Organize the bi-annual Wake Conference gathering the wake community
Coordinate existing activities and initiate new ones
Long term strategy to strengthen EAWE activities in this field
Explore new techniques (modelling and experiment)
Organize benchmarks within the field

Current Activities

The work within the test turbine working group should consist of collect and present information about:
