Lightning
Hallo,
ich komme nicht auf das richtige Wort. Hat jemand eine gute Idee?
Kontext:
"Normally, since wind turbines are made to operate during thunderstorms because of the good wind conditions, high rotation speeds of the wind turbine rotor are used. However, such high speed rotation, in combination with the unpredictability of the lightning discharge direction, can cause a lightning strike in which the strike discharge on a turbine blade does not remain at a static position, but which instead *attaches to* and moves over the turbine blade’s surface.
Danke für alle Vorschläge!
