Join us to explore how advanced simulation is making wind turbines quieter, more efficient, and ready for the future of renewable energy.
Quieter Wind Turbines, Smarter Solutions
Wind energy is expanding rapidly, but so are the challenges—especially noise. Stricter regulations and community concerns demand innovative solutions to reduce turbine noise, ensuring wind power remains both sustainable and socially acceptable.
The Noise Challenge
Wind turbines generate two types of noise: aero-acoustic (from airflow over blades) and vibro-acoustic (from mechanical components like drivetrains). As aero-acoustic noise decreases, tonal noises—such as gear-mesh errors—become more noticeable. Addressing these issues requires advanced simulation and collaboration
Simulation-Driven Innovation
Using tools like SIMULIA PowerFLOW®, engineers can model noise reduction strategies for blade profiles and full turbine designs. Meanwhile, SIMULIA Simpack™ and Wave6® help analyze and mitigate vibro-acoustic issues. New functionalities even allow OEMs and suppliers to collaborate securely, integrating IP-protected subsystems for holistic noise reduction.
A Quieter, More Efficient Future
By combining multi-fidelity simulation and multidisciplinary collaboration, we can design quieter turbines that meet regulations and lower costs. This approach ensures wind energy remains a viable, sustainable solution for our energy needs.
