This repository contains the LES input files, postprocessing code and processed data/figures belonging to the publication "Comparison of helix and wake steering control for varying turbine spacing and wind direction" by E. Taschner, M. Becker, R. Verzijlbergh and J.W. van Wingerden (2024). In this work, large-eddy simulations (LES) of a two-turbine wind farm are performed, where the upstream turbine employs baseline greedy, helix or wake steering control. The objective of the study is to compare the helix and wake steering wind farm flow control strategies across a wide range of wind turbine spacings and wind directions, where the latter determines the degree of wake overlap at the downstream turbine. The result is a map in the spacing/wind direction space, which indicates the control strategy delivering the largest power gain for a given operating condition.
