OWA Wake Modelling Challenge Dataset

This repository collects input and simulation datasets from the Offshore Wind Accelerator (OWA) Wake Modelling Challenge, whose objective is to improve confidence in wake models in the prediction of array efficiency. The data is meant to be used together with the open-source model evaluation scripts available in the following github repository: https://github.com/CENER-EPR/OWAbench

The results of the challenge are summarized in the following paper:
