  3. Wind-turbine aerodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind-turbine_aerodynamics

    Wind-turbine blades in laydown yard awaiting installation. The primary application of wind turbines is to generate energy using the wind. Hence, the aerodynamics is a very important aspect of wind turbines. Like most machines, wind turbines come in many different types, all of them based on different energy extraction concepts.

  4. IEC 61400-25 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_61400-25

    It is a subset of IEC 61400; a set of standards for designing wind turbines. [2] The IEC 61400-25 standard is a basis for simplifying the roles that the wind turbine and SCADA systems have to play. The crucial part of the wind power plant information, information exchange methods, and communication stacks are standardized. They build a basis to ...

  5. Wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_turbine

    The wind turbines are generally of conventional horizontal-axis, three-bladed design and generate power to feed electrical grids, but they also serve the unconventional roles of technology demonstration, public relations, and education. [91] The Bahrain World Trade Center is an example of wind turbines displayed prominently for the public. It ...

  6. IEC 61400 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_61400

    Considerable co-operation has been taking place between UK, USA, and more recently Japan, Denmark and other countries so that the IEC 61400-2 standard as interpreted within e.g. the MCS certification scheme (of UK origin) is interoperable with the USA (for example where it corresponds to an AWEA small wind turbine standard) and other countries.

  7. Wind energy software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_energy_software

    The RETScreen software wind power model is designed to evaluate energy production and savings, costs, emission reductions, financial viability and risk for central-grid, isolated-grid and off-grid wind energy projects, for multi-turbine and single-turbine hybrid systems.

  8. Wind power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_power

    Wind turbines have been used for household electric power generation in conjunction with battery storage over many decades in remote areas. [105] Examples of small-scale wind power projects in an urban setting can be found in New York City, where, since 2009, several building projects have capped their roofs with Gorlov-type helical wind turbines.

  9. Vertical-axis wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical-axis_wind_turbine

    The world's tallest vertical-axis wind turbine, in Cap-Chat, Quebec Vortexis schematic Vertical axis wind turbine offshore. A vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) is a type of wind turbine where the main rotor shaft is set transverse to the wind while the main components are located at the base of the turbine. This arrangement allows the generator ...
