A. Development of wake
The needing of the material in the laboratory, its difficult to
explore the velocity field behind the disc for one test. Hence,
its necessary to divide the velocity field in two parts(Fig.2).

The objectives of this work are the study of the flow through a
porous disc and the evaluation of the profitability of wind
farms.
In fact, the technique PIV was used to evaluate the velocity in
the wake zone of the porous disc. The treatment of images
obtained from this technique allowed to represent the flow and
to show the three regions of wake downstream of the porous
disc. A region of near wake which is essential to set the initial
conditions, also the region of intermediate wake whose the
flow is complex and there are no expression of the velocity
because of his axisymmetric character and finished diameter.
The estimation of the length of the intermediate wake present
the starting point of the far wake which is based on analysis of
Prandtl and Swain. Finally, the study is devoted to the
presentation of the appropriate model for the performance
evaluation of a wind farm.
