“…In LES models, turbines may be represented with actuator-disk models, which represent the turbine rotor as a solid body, or more computationally expensive actuator-line models [Churchfield et al, 2012a], which represent the effect of each individual turbine blade. These turbine parameterizations have been used to analyze wake turbulence [Jimenez et al, 2007[Jimenez et al, , 2008, the wind speed deficit within offshore wakes [Barthelmie et al, 2006;Vollmer et al, 2015], tip vortices in the wake caused by blade rotation [Troldborg et al, 2010], stability impacts on wakes [Troldborg et al, 2011;Lu and Port e-Agel, 2011;Mirocha et al, 2014;Aitken et al, 2014;Bhaganagar and Debnath, 2014], wake effects on surface fluxes [Calaf et al, 2011], and variations in wind turbine layout [Meyers and Meneveau, 2012;Archer et al, 2013].…”
