Effect of a 2D Hill on the Propagation of Wind Turbine Noise [PDF]
AIAA 2022, 2923 (2022), 2022 A good understanding of wind turbine noise propagation is relevant to better measure the impact of turbines on the environment. In this study, we developed numerical simulations to study the impact of a 2D hill on the sound propagation for a turbine in non flat terrain.

Multivariate Gaussian Process Incorporated Predictive Model for Stream Turbine Power Plant [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Steam power turbine-based power plant approximately contributes 90% of the total electricity produced in the United States. Mainly steam turbine consists of multiple types of turbine, boiler, attemperator, reheater, etc. Power is produced through the steam with high pressure and temperature that is conducted by the turbines.
