Fans and wind power
the most significant difference between air and water in regard to energy is
that they are very different in density. Water is about 800 times as heavy as
air, volume for volume. This means that energy is much more tightly packed in
water, so that water machines can be conveniently small. Air machines, on the
other hand, must handle large volumes of air, and so are large and cumbersome |

How Wind
Turbines Work The terms wind energy or wind power describe the process by
which the wind is used to generate mechanical power or electricity. Wind
turbines convert the kinetic energy in the wind into mechanical power. This
mechanical power can be used for specific tasks (such as grinding grain or
pumping water) or a generator can convert this mechanical power into electricity. Take a look inside a wind turbine to see the various parts.

How does a Wind Turbine Work?
The energy in the wind turns two or three propeller-like blades around a rotor.
The rotor is connected to the main shaft, which spins a generator to create
electricity,
How does a Wind Turbine Work?
Wind turbines operate on a simple principle. The energy in the wind turns two or
three propeller-like blades around a rotor. The rotor is connected to the main
shaft, which spins a generator to create electricity,

Wind Turbine
Study
Wind turbines that operate at a constant speed attain the greatest
aerodynamic efficiency levels only when the wind speed is the same as the design
wind speed. In variable speed wind power systems, the turbine runs at a tip
speed ratio which ensures its maximum efficiency. Variable speed systems have
more advantages such as that the turbine is less sensitive to the wind pattern
of a given location and emits less noise at low speeds, pdf file |
