OK I see what you mean about asynchronous flicker but I am trying to prove that the proposer's figures are incorrect.As for the flicker rate you'd see, that really depends. The rotation of the blades are highly unlikely to ever be synchronised, so you can't simply sum the frequencies. In reality you'd see an asynchronous flicker if you were looking through several swept areas.
35dB is very quiet, btw. I wouldn't worry about that
If the figures for flicker are wrong then most likely the figures for sound levels are also wrong.
So if all three turbines were rotating at the same speed would the flicker rate be 1.5 x 2 x2 = 6Hz or 1.5 x 2^3 = 12Hz ?
This is what I would really like to know, I cannot figure it out myself and I was hoping someone would.
I have just checked the projected sound contours and my house is almost on the 40db line. With amplitude modulation this could get much louder.
Thanks for continuing to read this post.
Free beer to anyone who comes up with an answer, collection only, but I will give you a tour of the hills
