What about when the wind is tangent to installation line and blowing across them. Wouldn't they all rotate to face the wind and now be in front of one another?

- Bilal_io 4y agoI think placing them in a grid format, where each grid node gets a turbine. That way you'd have them aligned when the wind blows E<->W, S<->N, but also SW<->NE and SE<->NW even if they're x√2 away from each other in that case
- PeterisP 4y agoThe majority places have a strong directionality of wind due to the terrain, it's quite plausible that this place this happens very, very rarely (and the planners of that wind farm definitely took that into account). E.g. the first random example of a wind rose plot I googled - https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Wind-rose-plots-of-all-NPF-days-a-and-non-NPF-days-b-and-wind-speed-and-wind_fig3_323201207 https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Wind-rose-plots-of-all-N... - is quite typical, where winds almost all times go one way or the opposite way, and very rarely in the perpendicular direction.
