Zusammenfassung:A wind turbine 10 may include a tower 12, a nacelle 16 mounted on the tower 12 and a rotor 18 coupled to the nacelle 16. The rotor 18 may include a hub 20 and at least one rotor blade 22 extending from the hub 20. In addition, the wind turbine 10 may include a nozzle 100 mounted on or within the tower 12, the nacelle 16 or the hub 20. The nozzle 100 may include an inlet 108 and an outlet 110. Moreover, the nozzle 100 may be configured to accelerate a flow of fluid through the outlet 110 such that an ultrasonic sound emission is produced by the nozzle 100.
