  2. Wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_turbine

    For the wind turbine blades, while the material cost is much higher for hybrid glass/carbon fiber blades than all-glass fiber blades, labor costs can be lower. Using carbon fiber allows simpler designs that use less raw material. The chief manufacturing process in blade fabrication is the layering of plies.

  5. Variable speed wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_speed_wind_turbine

    A variable speed wind turbine is one which is specifically designed to operate over a wide range of rotor speeds. It is in direct contrast to fixed speed wind turbine where the rotor speed is approximately constant. The reason to vary the rotor speed is to capture the maximum aerodynamic power in the wind, as the wind speed varies.

  6. Savonius wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savonius_wind_turbine

    Savonius wind turbines are a type of vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT), used for converting the force of the wind into torque on a rotating shaft. The turbine consists of a number of aerofoils, usually—but not always—vertically mounted on a rotating shaft or framework, either ground stationed or tethered in airborne systems .

  7. Betz's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betz's_law

    In high wind speed, where the turbine is operating at its rated power, the turbine rotates (pitches) its blades to lower C P to protect itself from damage. The power in the wind increases by a factor of 8 from 12.5 to 25 m/s, so C P must fall accordingly, getting as low as 0.06 for winds of 25 m/s.

  8. IEC 61400 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_61400

    Turbine wind class is just one of the factors needing consideration during the complex process of planning a wind power plant. Wind classes determine which turbine is suitable for the normal wind conditions of a particular site. Turbine classes are determined by three parameters - the average wind speed, extreme 50-year gust, and turbulence. [12]

  9. Outline of wind energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_wind_energy

    Wind turbine aerodynamics – the power, F, is the force vector, and U is the speed of the moving wind turbine part. Wind turbine design – the process of defining the form and specifications of a wind turbine to extract energy from the wind. Types of wind turbines
