OFF framework, code underlying the publication A dynamic open-source model to investigate wake dynamics in response to wind farm flow control strategies
The OFF toolbox provides one interface to dynamic parametric wake modeling. The goal is to enable testing of different approaches, comparisons using the same interface, and an environment to develop new techniques. The OFF toolbox was used to predict the power and energy generated by a wind farm during ~24 hours of wind direction changes, parts of which were validated with LES. The findings can be found in the publication "A dynamic open-source model to investigate wake dynamics in response to wind farm flow control strategies", Marcus Becker, Maxime Lejeune, Philipe Chatelain, Dries Allaerts, Rafael Mudafort, and Jan-Willem van Wingerden, Wind Energy Science, 2024 (submitted). The input files, as well as the results from the LES and FLORIS can be found in the data repository with the DOI 10.4121/29c209fa-f2a4-456d-9353-67cf81be1aaa The code used in this repository is designed to work together with NREL's FLORIS toolbox and was tested with FLORIS v4.0.1: https://github.com/NREL/floris/releases/tag/v4.0.1
