Wake Modeling

Wake Modeling is a computational methodology within fluid dynamics that specifically characterizes the downstream flow structures and turbulence generated by aerodynamic bodies, distinguishing itself by its focus on predicting the evolution, interaction, and dissipation of vortices and momentum deficits in the wake regions of fixed or rotating lifting surfaces in applications such as wind turbines, rotorcraft, and bluff bodies in atmospheric flows.
