Example for the Technological Development of a New Wind Turbine
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. View the wind turbine animation to see how a wind turbine works
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, animation

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
