Geostrophic drag law for conventionally neutral atmospheric boundary layers revisited

The geostrophic drag law (GDL), which predicts the geostrophic drag coefficient and the cross‐isobaric angle, is relevant for meteorological applications such as wind energy. For conventionally…

Evaluating the accuracy of the actuator line model against blade element momentum theory in uniform inflow

We evaluate the accuracy of the actuator line model (ALM) approach by performing simulations for the NREL 5-MW wind turbine in uniform inflow using three large eddy simulation codes. The power and…

Flow over Hills: A Large-Eddy Simulation of the Bolund Case

Simulation of local atmospheric flows around complex topography is important for several applications in wind energy (short-term wind forecasting and turbine siting and control), local weather…

Modeling flow around bluff bodies and predicting urban dispersion using large eddy simulation.

This study describes a large eddy simulation (LES) tool including a new dynamic subgrid closure and boundary treatment to model urban dispersion problems, and sets the minimum grid resolution and subgrid model requirements needed to apply LES in simulations of neutral atmospheric boundary layer flow and scalar transport over a realistic urban geometry.

Intercomparison of terrain-following coordinate transformation and immersed boundary methods in large-eddy simulation of wind fields over complex terrain
