Airborne sound propagation over sea during offshore wind farm piling.
Offshore piling for wind farm construction has attracted a lot of attention in recent years due to the extremely high noise emission levels associated with such operations. While underwater noise levels were shown to be harmful for the marine biology, the propagation of airborne piling noise over sea has not been studied in detail before. In this study, detailed numerical calculations have been...
متن کاملWake studies around a large offshore wind farm using satellite and airborne SAR
2. STUDY SITES Abstract A method is presented for the mapping of wind speed over the ocean using satellite (ERS-2 SAR, ENVISAT ASAR) and airborne (E-SAR) synthetic aperture radars. Impacts of a large offshore wind farm on the local wind climate are described quantitatively from the radar measurements. Of particular interest is the magnitude and extent of wakes (i.e. regions of reduced wind spee...
متن کاملAutomated grid connection design process for offshore wind farm clusters
An automated grid connection design process for offshore wind farm clusters that takes into account the variability of wind and power demand/prices is demonstrated on a 7200 MW case study inspired by Dogger Bank, using the Net-Op planning tool. Two modelling approaches for demand, generation and prices are outlined and compared for this case study. Both approaches result in the same optimal off...
متن کاملImprovement of the Wind Farm Model Flap for Offshore Applications
The wind farm program FLaP (Farm Layout Program), developed at the University of Oldenburg, has been extended to improve the description of wake development in offshore conditions. Especially the low ambient turbulence and the effect of atmospheric stability have been addressed. Model results have been compared with measured vertical wake profiles and mean turbulence intensities from the Danish...
متن کاملAvian collision risk at an offshore wind farm.
We have been the first to investigate whether long-lived geese and ducks can detect and avoid a large offshore wind farm by tracking their diurnal migration patterns with radar. We found that the percentage of flocks entering the wind farm area decreased significantly (by a factor 4.5) from pre-construction to initial operation. At night, migrating flocks were more prone to enter the wind farm ...
