Noise and vibration from building-mounted micro wind turbines part 3 : prediction methodology (2011)
Report
part 3 : prediction methodology

This brief report describes a simplified method for estimation of
levels of structure-borne sound in buildings to which a micro-wind
turbine (MWT) is attached. The method is applicable to two specific
designs of MWT, each for three lengths of moun... Read More about Noise and vibration from building-mounted micro wind turbines part 3 : prediction methodology.

SODAR calibration for wind energy applications, final reporting on WP3, EU WISE project NNE5-2001-297 (2005)
Report
Bradley, S., Antoniou, I., von Hünerbein, S., Kindler, D., Jorgensen, H., & De Noord, M. (2005). SODAR calibration for wind energy applications, final reporting on WP3, EU WISE project NNE5-2001-297

The method traditionally used for measuring the wind speed and direction for wind energy purposes is to record the output from cup or propeller anemometers and vanes at several heights on a mast. As turbines have grown in height, this method has bec... Read More about SODAR calibration for wind energy applications, final reporting on WP3, EU WISE project NNE5-2001-297.

On the theory of SODAR measurement techniques (final reporting on WP1, EU WISE project NNE5-2001-297) (2003)
Report
Antoniou, I., Jorgensen, H., Ormel, F., Bradley, S., von Hünerbein, S., Emeis, S., & Warmbier, G. (2003). On the theory of SODAR measurement techniques (final reporting on WP1, EU WISE project NNE5-2001-297)

The need for alternative means to measure the wind speed for wind energy purposes has increased with
the increase of the size of wind turbines. The cost and the technical difficulties for performing wind
speed measurements has also increased with t... Read More about On the theory of SODAR measurement techniques (final reporting on WP1, EU WISE project NNE5-2001-297).
