Turbulent energy or turbulent viscosity

A beginners question. Say I have a traditional wind mill in a built environment and I want to understand the extra turbulence at the location of the wings (compared to a free field location).
I expect that turbulence will add extra wear and tear forces to the sails. Which parameter best described this resulting wear and tear force: turbulent energy of turbulent viscosity? And how do I compare the built values with the free field values: subtract them of divided them or??? If there is some literature/webpage where such a comparison between two different situations (in my case: built en free field) is described (related to wear and tear), that would also be helpful. Thanks for your help! All the best, Victor P.S. I was thinking to compare the turbulent kinematic energy: determine the 'standard deviation' instead of TKE: sigma(built)=sqrt(2*KTE) en then compare this sigma(built) with the speedmagnitude(built): sigma(built)/speedmagnitude(build))=relative(built). Do the same for the free field (relative(freefield)) and then compare these two. |
