Multiple Wind Turbines
Measurements in the vicinity of three Mod-2 wind turbines indicated that TVI effects
are enhanced when several turbines operate in synchronism (with blades always parallel).
The amplitude of the interference pulses produced by two synchronized turbines is about
twice that for a single wind turbine. Without synchronism, modulation pulses caused by
each machine can be identified individually and produce interference singly [Sengupta et
al. 1983a]. For a large number of units, interferences may add randomly, but this is yet to
be verified. Assuming synchronism for our idealized cluster scatter model we obtain
