 This study examined how atmospheric turbulence affects the performance of wind turbines. It found that the turbulence level of the incoming air has a significant impact on the turbine's ability to generate power. When the incoming air had higher turbulence levels, the turbine was able to recover more quickly from its wake and produce more power. Additionally, the turbulence level affected the location of the maximum turbulence intensity and turbulence stress, which is important for understanding how the turbine interacts with the atmosphere.
