Twin Test 1: Effects of Vegetation on Flows in the Urban Environment

The present chapter of the book of references refers to the first twin test of the TWEET-IE project, carried out in the wind tunnels of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and the National Technical University of Athens.

An investigation of the effects of vegetation on flow in the urban environment is carried out through the study of the flow past a cube shaped building exposed to an atmospheric boundary layer. The building has openings on its side (with respect to the oncoming flow) walls.

Identically shaped buildings were studied in both wind tunnels. The study at KIT was performed with a Laser Doppler Velocimetry (LDV) System and at NTUA with a 2D-3C Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) system.

The beginning of the report documents details of the measurement methods and practical advice resulting from their application during the experiments at the two different wind tunnels.

Comparison of the two measurements is then presented at the same relative positions around the cube. Furthermore, simulated vegetation was placed on the upstream face and on the roof of the building and its effects were studied, again in both wind tunnels.

Results and analysis of the measurements are presented.

Twin Test 2: Wake interactions of a cluster of turbines and wake steering techniques

We are pleased to announce the availability of another chapter of the TWEET-IE book of reference: Chapter 2 “Wake interactions of a cluster of turbines and wake steering techniques”.

This follows Chapter 1 “Effects of Vegetation on Flows in the Urban Environment”.

The book of reference is intended to provide detailed and applied information relevant to the TWEET-IE twin tests.

Look out for the next two chapters in the coming months!
