Wind Energy
Wind Turbine Noise Impact Calculator
Estimates the combined sound pressure level at a receptor from multiple wind turbines, factoring in distance, terrain, and atmospheric conditions. Use it to assess community noise impact during environmental assessments or planning applications.

Wind Energy
Wind Farm Turbine Spacing Calculator
Calculate the minimum center-to-center distance between wind turbines based on rotor diameter and spacing factors for downwind and crosswind directions. Use this during wind farm layout design to reduce wake-induced energy losses.
