| Abstract | The wind turbine wake of a single :::: wind turbine in complex terrain is analysed using measurements from lidars. A particular focus of this analysis is the wake deficit and propagation. Six scanning lidars, three short-range and three long-range WindScanners, were deployed during the Perdigão 2015 measurement campaign, : which took place at a double-ridge site in Portugal. Several scanning scenarios, including tripleand dualDoppler scans, were designed to capture the wind turbine wake of a 2 MW turbine located on one of the ridges. Different wake displacements are categorised according to the diurnal 5 cycle :::: time :: of ::: the :::: day. The results show a strong dependence of the vertical wake propagation to :: on : the atmospheric stability. When a terraininduced :::::::::::: terrain-induced : gravity wave is observed under stable conditions, the wake follows the terrain down the ridge with a maximum inclination of -28 . During unstable conditions, the wake is advected upwards by up to 29 above horizontal ::: the :::::::: horizontal ::::: plane. |
