Your Questions About Wind Turbine Noise
Michael asks…How much does windshear affect the noise levels that wind turbines produce ?admin answers:U should consider the wind turbines that are affected by wind shear. Vertical wind-speed profiles result in different wind speeds at the blades nearest to the ground level compared to those at the top of blade travel, and this in turn affects the turbine operation. This low level wind shear can create a large bending moment in the shaft of a two bladed turbine when the blades are vertical.
