Impact of wind farm wake steering control on blade root load
Yaw misalignment is known to affect blade root loads on wind turbines. Most of previous studies concentrate on yaw misalignment in the context of wake steering control, aiming at

A tiny tweak could steer wind power in the right direction
Pointing turbines slightly away from oncoming wind — called wake-steering — can reduce that interference and improve both the quantity and quality of power from wind farms, and probably

Blade planform design optimization to enhance turbine wake control
We demonstrate different blade design optimizations that can maximize time-averaged lateral wake deflection, entrainment of kinetic energy, or total power of multiple turbines.

Key to Wind Turbine Blade Transport: Vehicle Selection & Control
The first professional hurdle in wind turbine blade transport is vehicle selection nventional trailers cannot handle blades over 80 meters, so projects typically use telescopic blade trailers or

How does wake steering improve wind farm performance
In this short video, we demonstrate the simulation of 12 wind turbines in a farm setting, highlighting the effectiveness of wake steering. The wake steering is enabled through a slight yaw

Vertical axis wind turbine wake steering by pitched struts and blades
We then use this method to simulate wake steering by means of fixed pitched blades and struts. We demonstrate that combining pitched wakes and struts can lead to very advantageous wake behavior,
