Abstract (EN): The analysis of a site characterised by its complex topography and the availability of one Hertz wind measurements is carried out. CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) model results show large values of veer and the existence of preferred time scales for some wind directions, which are confirmed by on-site measurements. These oscillations are shown to result from a pair of vortices in the lee of a mountain for one wind direction, and from the tendency for the flow to go around a mountain alternately by the right or left side, for another direction.
