VALIDATION
Wind tunnel & real site data comparisons

From Wind Tunnel to Full-Scale Wind Farms

Two-step validation process

Wind tunnel tests: controlled validation of wake models
Full-scale wind farms: comparison with SCADA/LES data

Key metrics analyzed

Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) < 10% for most cases
No site-specific tuning: consistent parameters across all validation case

Physical phenomena validated

Wake deficit, turbulence, deflection, and blockage effects

All results use the same solver parameters: no ad-hoc adjustments
