Gaussian coming soon

https://bladednextgen.dnv.com/schema/0.4.1/TimeDomainSimulation/Environment/Wind/SteadyWakeDeficit/Gaussian.json

Not supported yet

A simple model for the reduced velocity of the wind behind another turbine. This deficit will be applied across a certain region, and this region will not move around during the simulation. The velocity deficit profile will be based on a Gaussian distribution, scaled by a maximum deficit and the radius of the region affected.

  • SteadyWakeDeficitType: string = Gaussian
  • HorizontalOffsetFromHub: number (m)
  • VerticalOffsetFromHub: number (m)
  • CentrelineVelocityDeficit: number
  • WidthOfDeficit: number

A type of SteadyWakeDeficit

Properties

HorizontalOffsetFromHub: number (m), optionalcoming soon

The horizontal (global Y) offset of the upwind turbine from the turbine being simulated.

VerticalOffsetFromHub: number (m), optionalcoming soon

The vertical (global Z) offset of the upwind turbine from the turbine being simulated.

SteadyWakeDeficitType: stringcoming soon

Defines the specific type of SteadyWakeDeficit model in use. For a Gaussian object, this must always be set to a value of Gaussian.

CentrelineVelocityDeficit: numbercoming soon

The maximum deficit within the affected region, occurring in the centre. 1.0 or 100% would be a reduction of the wind to zero, whereas 0.0 or 0% would represent no change in the free-field wind speed.

WidthOfDeficit: numbercoming soon

The width of the region within which there is a velocity deficit.
