    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_turbine

    Wind Power Density (WPD) is a quantitative measure of wind energy available at any location. It is the mean annual power available per square meter of swept area of a turbine, and is calculated for different heights above ground. Calculation of wind power density includes the effect of wind velocity and air density.

  4. Wind turbine design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_turbine_design

    Wind turbine design is the process of defining the form and configuration of a wind turbine to extract energy from the wind. [ 1] An installation consists of the systems needed to capture the wind's energy, point the turbine into the wind, convert mechanical rotation into electrical power, and other systems to start, stop, and control the turbine.

  5. Floating wind turbine - Wikipedia

    The NASA/GE MOD-1 wind turbine in Boone, North Carolina was the world's first turbine to produce 2 MW. NASA contracted with General Electric in 1978 to scale up from the MOD-0A with a 10-fold increase in power. The Mod-1 was the first wind turbine in the world to produce 2 megawatts and also General Electric's first wind turbine.

  9. Vertical-axis wind turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical-axis_wind_turbine

    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 and gearbox to be located close to the ground, facilitating service and repair. VAWTs do not need to be pointed into the ...
