Evaluation of previous wind-tunnel, studies at DMI concerning the influence of buildings on the energy production of wind turbines. Technical note

Abstract

The background for this note is the description of job A - 1a in research project: ``Siting of Wind Turbines near Buildings and Obstacles``. The scope of this note is to evaluate previous relevant work carried out in the area by the Danish Maritime Institute (DMI). In the report SL 84913, there is given a wind-tunnel investigation of the influence from buildings and obstacles on the power content in the flow. Four types of buildings in the scale ratio 1:100 were studied in a boundary-layer wind tunnel. The change in the power content of the flow caused by the models was studied in simulated boundary layers, which correspond to full-scale boundary layers. It is specifically the nearfield in front and behind the buildings, which is investigated in the report. The report shows that the essential influence on the power content from the building is in the nearfield 20 house heights in front and behind the building. (au).
