   An example of a wind turbine, this 3 bladed turbine is the classic design of modern wind turbines Wind turbine components : 1-Foundation, 2-Connection to the electric grid, 3-Tower, 4-Access ladder, 5-Wind orientation control (Yaw control), 6-Nacelle, 7-Generator, 8-Anemometer, 9-Electric or Mechanical Brake, 10-Gearbox, 11-Rotor blade, 12-Blade pitch control, 13-Rotor hub

3. Small wind turbine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_wind_turbine

   Small wind turbines often have passive yaw systems as opposed to active ones. They use a direct drive generator and use a tail fin to point into the wind, whereas larger turbines have geared powertrains that are actively pointed into the wind. They usually produce between 500 W and 10 kW, with some as small as 50 W.

4. Unconventional wind turbines - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unconventional_wind_turbines

   Counter-rotating wind turbines Light pole wind turbine. Unconventional wind turbines are those that differ significantly from the most common types in use.. As of 2024, the most common type of wind turbine is the three-bladed upwind horizontal-axis wind turbine (HAWT), where the turbine rotor is at the front of the nacelle and facing the wind upstream of its supporting turbine tower.

   The generator, which is approximately 34% of the wind turbine cost, includes the electrical generator, [64] [65] the control electronics, and most likely a gearbox (e.g., planetary gear box), [66] adjustable-speed drive, or continuously variable transmission [67] component for converting the low-speed incoming rotation to high-speed rotation ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Wind_power

   Historically, wind power was used by sails, windmills and windpumps, but today it is mostly used to generate electricity. This article deals only with wind power for electricity generation. Today, wind power is generated almost completely with wind turbines, generally grouped into wind farms and connected to the electrical grid.

8. Vaneless ion wind generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaneless_ion_wind_generator

   The bladeless design of ion wind generators could make wind power more environmentally friendly, as current "wind power plants represent a risk of bird mortality." [13] Wind turbines have maximum speeds of operation which vary by design. Wind turbines shut down when "cut-out" speeds are exceeded to prevent damage. [14]
