Abstract
A method for controlling a wind power plant is described. The method comprises measuring a sound emission by means of at least one pressure sensor secured to the rotor blade; detecting a characteristic aeroacoustic sound for at least one stall based on the sound emission; and controlling or regulating one or several components of the wind power plant based on the detection of the characteristic aeroacoustic sound of the stall.
