Wind turbine measurements for noise source indentification

Creators

Description

This report summarises the results of a study developing a method of measuring and analysing noise from a wind turbine that provides repeatability and can be used to obtain data on noise, vibration, weather conditions and wind turbine operation. The experimental setup is described, and the overall level analysis, and the analyses of mechanical and aerodynamic noise are examined. The effects of turbulence on noise, and investigation of blade swish are discussed
