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 offset of the first and second row turbines away from the main wind direction.
This simulation, containing 12 aero-servo-elastic turbine instances, runs at speeds multiple times faster than real-time, enabling wind farm controller development, tuning, and optimization. The aerodynamic interactions are modeled using the Dynamic Wake Meandering Model (DWM).
