CFD modelling of wind flow over terrain

The aim of this project is to show the capabilities of a RANS based numerical model in accurately analysing wind flow over real terrain regions, and assess its usage for wind energy applications. The main reasons this type of model is not widely used in the wind energy industry are due to the comput...
