Abstract

A method implemented using at least one processor module includes receiving a plurality of operational parameters corresponding to a plurality of wind turbines and obtaining a plurality of source sound power values corresponding to the plurality of wind turbines. The method further includes obtaining a receptor sound pressure value corresponding to a receptor location and estimating an attenuation model based on the plurality of source sound power values, and the receptor sound pressure value. The attenuation model disclosed herein comprises a plurality of attenuation coefficients. The method also includes determining at least one turbine set-point corresponding to at least one wind turbine among the plurality of wind turbines based on the plurality of attenuation coefficients, and the plurality of turbine operational parameters.
