Biography
Miss Zheni Fei completed her first degree in Aerospace Engineering at the University of Nottingham Ningbo China, and graduated with a first class in 2021. The following year, she did a master's course at Imperial College London in Aeronautical Computational Methods and graduated with distinction. In 2023, she joined the University of Oxford for a DPhil in wind farm aerodynamics.

- Local and global blockage effect in wind farms
- Turbulence modelling in turbine wakes
Research Projects
Analytical model of a single turbine wake
This study derives analytical solutions to find the start of the far wake for a single turbine wake and computes the far-wake recovery over a range of inflow turbulence intensities and local blockage ratios.
Analytical wake model of a row of turbines
This study prediects how the wake of multiple turbines interact, develop and eventually recovers.
