One of the key challenges for the integration of these sources into the existing power grid is their erratic and sometimes discontinuous availability (volatility). Wind energy is one of the most relevant sources of CO2 neutral electric energy, but volatile due to fluctuating wind fields on multiple scales. This has already been realized so that senors provide real-time information on the scale of individual wind turbines. However, fore- casting remains an unresolved problem since numerical weather prediction models cannot provide the necessary level of detail. New modeling strategies are required that integrate turbine-scale and meso-scale information for accurate site-specific short-term prediction.

R. A1 - Schmidt, Heiko T1 - Evaluating turbulent channel flows with rough walls : homogeneous roughness parameterization for use in a map-based turbulence model T2 - International journal of heat and fluid flow N2 - This work is focused on modeling the effects of homogeneous roughness on low-order velocity statistics in turbulent channel flows. Hydrodynamic effects due to the roughness are characterized on the basis of volume-averaging theory (VAT) and a discrete roughness element method. This theory exploits the homogeneous character of the roughness in order to reduce the complexity of the flow to its one-dimensional statistics. The formulated VAT-based roughness forcing is best suited for drag dominated surfaces. Turbulence modeling closure is achieved with a map-based turbulence model, the One-Dimensional Turbulence (ODT) model. This avoids the prescription of laws of the wall or other ad-hoc scalings, unlike in more traditional filter-based turbulence models. The modeling framework is applied on selected Reynolds number flows for likewise selected roughness topologies. Results are compared to direct numerical simulation (DNS) data available from the literature. Among others, model results are compared with those of a previously formulated parametric forcing approach (PFA) for roughness drag which involved a costly coefficient calibration linked to the roughness topology model. In ODT, the only calibration process required is the same one involved for the turbulence model parameters, i.e., similar to the ODT model application for smooth-wall flows. Despite all of the inherently implied shortcomings of a 1-D model, some appealing properties of ODT are discussed. Notably, the model is able to predict the roughness function, as well as the wall-normal profile of the Reynolds shear stress across the entire boundary layer thickness.

A good deal of that challenge lies in the modeling of the inflow turbulence in the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL). A stochastic one-dimensional turbulence (ODT) model is applied to an idealized neutrally stratified ABL and evolves the instantaneous velocity profile with full-scale resolution. The model is able to reproduce the law of the wall consistently after an initial calibration with the surface drag law. Investigating turbulent time series of the horizontal velocity components it is demonstrated that the model generates physically justified intermittency features with increasing turbulence intensity.

Several simulations were performed using the most readily-available RANS models in the open-source library OpenFOAM. A customized 1-D RANS solver was also developed for ease of analysis. The focus of the study is on the reproduction of the mean velocity profile, its maximum, and maximum radial location, as well as modeled low-order fluctuation statistics. The flow in the annular gap is characterized by a radius ratio of 0.1, and a friction Reynolds number equal to 600 that is based on a mean friction velocity. Deviations from the mean velocity profile are observed for all RANS models investigated when compared with Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) reference data. The representation of the near-wall outer cylinder flow is better than that of the near-wall inner cylinder flow.
