Abstract An increasing number of wind farms are built over or close to complex terrain sites. These sites are associated with tough flow conditions and can affect wind turbine performance and life time. Wind t...unnel test was carried out to investigate the effect of a steep two-dimensional hill on the performance of a horizontal axis wind turbine. Experiments were performed in the boundary layer wind tunnel to measure the load acted on a wind turbine at a number of locations over the hill. Moment acting on the wind turbine at the top of the hill was higher than moment acting on the turbine upstream of the hill.show more
