Abstract

Meandering describes the large-scale, low frequency motions of wind turbine wakes, which could determine wake recovery rates, impact the loads exerted on turbine structures, and play a critical role in the design and optimal control of wind farms. This paper presents a comprehensive review of previous work related to wake meandering. Emphasis is placed on the origin and characteristics of wake meandering and computational models, including both the dynamic wake meandering models and large-eddy simulation approaches. Future research directions in the field are also discussed.
