Modeling and Measurement – Current Advances in the State of the Art (Scientific) (2D)<br />
(Room B312 – Resource Assessment Track)<br />
This session pulls together two key concepts to wind resource assessment; modeling the wind flow, and measuring<br />
the wind speed. The first two presenters show how numerical wind flow models can be used to predict stabilityinduced<br />
wind patterns in complex terrain, and how atmospheric stability affects turbine power performance. A panel<br />
discusses wind tunnel calibration of anemometers, and state-of-the-art treatment for blockage and off-axis flow<br />
effects.<br />
