Short summary
This work presents the outcomes of an acoustic experimental campaign conducted on an industrial wind turbine under normal operation and yaw misalignment. The objective of this test was to study the effect of yaw misalignment on turbine noise magnitude and directivity. The results show a slight increase in the noise emitted by the turbine when it is misaligned and a rotation of the noise directivity pattern consistent with the rotation of the nacelle.
