Résumé

Une éolienne est une machine moderne qui produit de l’électricité par le vent. Les éoliennes génèrent quatre types de bruit: tonal, à large bande, de basse fréquence et impulsif. Une autre façon de voir le bruit des éoliennes est de considérer ses sources. Il y a deux catégories fondamentales, soit mécanique et aérodynamique. Le bruit mécanique est transmis le long de la structure de la turbine et est émis de ses surfaces. Le bruit aérodynamique est produit par le flot d’air à travers les pales. Aux États-Unis, les nombreuses centrales d’éoliennes doivent être conformes à la réglementation sur le bruit de l’état et/ou de la région. Une pratique commune est de déterminer la distance minimale des résidences pour mettre en application la limite de bruit la plus sévère.
