1 Amplitude modulation for different weather conditions Conny Larsson Uppsala University, Sweden EWEA Technology Workshop: Wind Turbine Sound 214
2 Measurements Economical support from Swedish Energy Agency Results from two Wind Turbine sites: Forest, flat ground; Forest, heterogeneous terrain Special analyses of AM sound presented here.
3 Rythmic sound heard at distance Changes of the sound level occur due to the weather but does the weather also change the character of the sound at an immission point far away? Oerlemans demonstrated that mainly the downward movement of the turbine blades, as perceived on the ground, produces the swish sound. According to van den Berg, the synchronizing of sound between different WTs during propagation in a stable atmosphere could explain the thumping noise heard at greater distances from WTs.

Measure 8 times/s (Fast) Divide into 15 s long periods and analyze. Observations at the sites and studies of different amplitude modulation spectra Our definition: AM if the AMS-value (periodicities between.6 1. Hz) is.4 C. Larsson, and O.
