Short summary
We studied how different industry-oriented computer models predict the behavior of winds behind turbines in a wind farm. These wakes reduce energy output and can affect turbines further down the row. By comparing these three models with more detailed simulations, we found they agree well on overall power but differ in how they capture turbulence and wear on machines. Our results show where the models need improvement to make wind farm computer models more accurate and reliable in the future.
