Which outcome reduces generator output when blade-ice accumulates within a wind-farm array?

A)Decreased aerodynamic lift efficiency
B)Increased gearbox lubrication viscosity
C)Elevated thermal drag coefficient
D)Worsened nacelle yaw alignment

💡 Explanation

Decreased aerodynamic lift efficiency occurs because blade-ice phase transition increases blade roughness which triggers flow separation; therefore lift reduces, rather than the other outcomes because these depend on gearbox-temperature or yaw motor control.
