Lignarolo, L. (author), Ragni, D. (author), Simao Ferreira, C.J. (author), Van Bussel, G.J.W. (author)The actuator disc (AD) model is commonly used to simplify the simulation of horizontal-axis wind-turbine aerodynamics. The limitations of this approach in reproducing the wake losses in wind farm simulations have been proven by a previous research. The present study is aimed at providing an experimental analysis of the near-wake turbulent flow...journal article 2016
