We have noticed a typographical mistake in (2.6). The correct expression for the scalar diffusion from a disk source, as given by Crank (Reference Crank1979), is as follows:

The correct expression was used in the study. Therefore, the results, discussion and figures regarding the analogy between wind turbine wake expansion and scalar diffusion from a disk source remain valid.
