A Feasibility Study of Simulating the Micro-Scale Wind Field for Wind Energy Applications by NWP/CFD Model with Improved Coupling Method and Data Assimilation

Understanding the details of micro-scale wind fields is important in the development of wind energy. Research has proven that coupling Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models is a better approach for micro-scale wind field simulation. The main purpose of this...
