Sentences with phrase «increased wind noise»

The biggest hit in the A4 to allroad conversion comes from the drag coefficient, which results in increased wind noise and poorer highway mileage.

Especially given the clunky roof rail removal and the significantly increased wind noise on the highway even with the top closed.

The only problem I have had is the molding around the driver & passenger windows got crimped, resulting in increased wind noise.

Not exact matches

Roof open, the buffeting is conspicuous by its absence and is no worse than in others cars with a similar open - roof arrangement (think McLaren 570S Spider), and when the roof is closed only an increase in wind noise around the top of the A-pillar can be detected, meaning the i8 remains a great GT - sports car.

At higher speeds the lack of additional gears shows, as the engine winds up higher and noise increases.

The shape of the A-pillars and door mirrors were also designed keeping aerodynamic efficiency in mind, while increased rigidity around the door sashes, delivers improved sealing of the doors to reduce wind noise.

Turbulent air increases drag, which adds wind noise and reduces efficiency.

Increased dash insulation, added windshield side molding, acoustic laminated front door windows and the increased use of structural adhesive ensure a quiet ride with reduced road and wiIncreased dash insulation, added windshield side molding, acoustic laminated front door windows and the increased use of structural adhesive ensure a quiet ride with reduced road and wiincreased use of structural adhesive ensure a quiet ride with reduced road and wind noise.

As the speed increases, ABC also lowers the vehicle below the static ride height (maxing out at about 0.5 inch at about 80 mph) to reduce wind resistance for better fuel economy and reduced noise and lower the center of gravity for better high - speed stability.

The noise increased with the top down, of course, but a wind screen that folds up behind the front row effectively limited turbulence.

That didn't happen here, although one proposed farm was abandoned because the vibration from the wind turbines would have increased the «seismic noise» at the Laser Interferometry Gravitational Observatory», half of which is located on the Hanford Site, looking for gravitational waves.

Research into aero - acoustic properties will result in both the improved efficiency of wind turbines and increased siting opportunities, as the associated noise is decreased.

Whales and Dolphins can be affected by off shore wind farms by: • seismic exploration; • intense noise due to ramming / piling, drilling and dredging operations; • increased vessel activities during exploration and construction and later maintenance operations, • increased turbidity due to construction and cable laying; and, later, • decommissioning of wind farms.

New regulations will include increasing the setback distance for the turbines, creating tighter noise restrictions, eliminating turbine flicker for the homes of nonparticipating residents, and a ban on wind development within three miles of the Lake Huron shoreline.

However, as the wind speed increases, noise from wind passing through vegetation also increases which can mask the noise from wind turbines.

«With increased sea ice melt, however, come more waves and wind, which creates more noise and makes it harder to track undersea vessels.»

The study did find a correlation, but not a causal relationship, between increasing levels of wind turbine noise and annoyance.

... According to a review by Lovich and Ennen (2013), the construction and operation of wind farms have both potential and known impacts on terrestrial vertebrates, such as: (i) increase in direct mortality due to traffic collisions; (ii) destruction and modification of the habitat, including road development, habitat fragmentation and barriers to gene flow; (iii) noise effects, visual impacts, vibration and shadow flicker effects from turbines; (iv) electromagnetic field generation; (v) macro and microclimate change; (vi) predator attraction; and (vii) increase in fire risks.

Complaints have also increased about enormous new wind turbines» low - frequency noise.

As for correlation — you're confusing year to year noise in the surface temperature as heat moves around in the climate system with the documented increase in net heat, most of which winds up in the oceans.

Germany made big noises and lots of wind turbines, but increased coal burning to make up for the closing of nuclear power plants, as did Japan.

Most annoyance surveys suggest that wind farm hosts are less likely to be bothered by turbine noise than non-participating neighbors, and many wind projects make an effort to spread the financial benefits to include some non-host neighbors, because of suggestions that broader project participation will increase community acceptance.

A pair of high - def microphones work to block out wind and other noise to increase call quality and boost voice recognition capabilities.
