N2 - <h2>SOWFA setup for a nine turbine wind farm in turbulent wind during a wind direction change.</h2>
<p>This simulation is used as a preliminary indicator on how wakes might behave during changing environmental conditions.</p>
<p>The turbines are set up in a 3x3 grid with the initial wind direction coming from 255 deg and then uniformly shifting by -60 deg to 195 deg in a 300 s time frame (from 20600 s to 20900 s). All turbines are 10 MW DTU reference turbines, simulated with an actuator disc.</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>For more details see the relevant files. OpenFOAM 2.4 was used to run the simulation.</p>
<h3>Content</h3>
<p>The data set contains the relevant in- and outputs from the simulation and its precursor. This should be sufficient to validate the plots from the related publications and to understand how the simulation was set up.</p>
<p>Naturally, you will need to adapt local paths to your installation if you want to rerun the simulation.</p>
<h4>Note</h4>
<p>Due to a known bug in SOWFA, the power generated is multiplied twice with the air density. Therefore, to get the actual power generated, divide by 1.225.</p>
