Large Wind Turbine Siting Handbook: Television Interference Assessment, Final Subcontract Report

    Research output: NRELSubcontract Report

    Abstract

    The rotating blades of a horizontal axis wind turbine can distort the video portion of a television signal and thereby interfere with TV reception in the vicinity of the machine. The nature of this interference is described and methods are presented for calculating the zone within which the interference may be severe. Specific results are given for the MOO-OA, MOD-1 and MOD-2 machines asfunctions of the TV frequency.
