In the field of wind turbines , challenging acoustic issues arise time and again. These range from the erection to the operation of the turbines. Novicos has made an outstanding name for itself in the context of offshore wind turbines.
Once a wind turbine has been erected, it is important to optimize the noise development during operation. The sound radiation of the rotor blades as well as the nacelle with different drive train concepts (direct drive / geared) depends on many factors. Here, too, Novicos is successfully involved in the acoustic design. The "residents", whether in the water or on land, are grateful.

Acoustic simulation of the pile driving work
Pile foundations for wind turbines generate considerable noise during pile driving. These noise emissions affect the marine ecosystem. Our goal is to analyze sound waves during pile driving and to develop suitable noise control solutions. We successfully develop and test methods that allow you to dimension and design pile driving noise reduction measures (such as bubble curtains) already in the computer. Novicos' calculations have become an integral part of national and international offshore projects.

Operating noise of wind turbines
Transmission in water
As an experienced service provider in the field of marine acoustics, we are aware of the challenges that operational noise can pose to fish, marine mammals, and other marine life. Our expertise lies in the analysis, simulation, and reduction of noise emissions. By developing low-emission technologies and innovative concepts, we help reduce noise levels (e.g., in research projects such as Steelblade and WEToSo). Our approach is based on sound research and close collaboration with industry partners to effectively address regulatory requirements and promote best practices.

Noise prediction for wind turbines
Digital twin for acoustic issues
When expanding wind power in Germany, it is also necessary to develop areas that are less powerful in terms of wind conditions. In this case, an increase in the number of wind turbines is usually required.
Noise prediction for wind turbines
Digital twin for acoustic issues
As wind power expands in Germany, it will be necessary to develop areas where wind conditions are less favorable. In such cases, it is generally necessary to increase both the hub height and the rotor diameter. As a service provider in the wind energy sector, we are developing acoustically functional digital twins for wind turbines to make them quieter. Our solutions contribute to more environmentally friendly wind power projects and take current regulatory requirements into account during implementation.
