Wake Expansion and the Finite Blade Functions for Horizontal-Axis Wind Turbines

This paper considers the effect of wake expansion on the finite blade functions in blade element/momentum theory for horizontal-axis wind turbines. For any velocity component, the function is the ratio of the streamtube average to that at the blade elements. In most cases, the functions are set by t...
