ABSTRACT:
In one aspect, a method for aligning a component into a wind direction is provided. The component comprises a sensor which is located such that at least part of the sensor is exposed to the wind. A signal is measured based on the force acting on the sensor due to the wind, and the component is rotated depending on the measured signal. Additionally a sensor for determining misalignment of a component relative to a wind direction is provided. The sensor comprises at least one flat element and at least one tool or device for measuring the force acting on the flat element.
