A new prescribed wake model for horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs) is presented. The model`s wake geometry is derived from simple prescriptive functions, based on momentum theory, defining the three-dimensional wake development from the near to the far field. The work described herein considers the analysis of both steady axial and yawed flow conditions. The detailed modelling of the yawed case is still in the initial stages, it is envisaged that this will eventually include fully unsteady aerodynamic effects. Model validation is by comparison with both experimental data and results from a free wake model.
