They do. Who told you they didn't? Wind turbines have been installed on many airplanes. In particular, the A3 had a RAT (ram air turbine) that was extended if emergency electrical power was needed.

Is it true that batteries and will keep their charge longer if they are kept in a refrigerator or freezer?

Placing batteries in the freezer will likely damage them.


Do batteries regain power in the freezer?

No....batteries do not regain power by placing them in the freezer. The only good that comes by storing batteries in the freezer is that the lifespan of the battery is increased but only by a very small percentage. (less than 2% longer lifespan)

Can you make a bulb glow more brightly by adding a second battery?

Yes, two batteries will make a light bulb brighter than one, provided that the batteries are placed in series. The brightness of the bulb is determined by the voltage, and placing two batteries in series rather than just using one increases the voltage.


How do you get wind energy and how is wind energy obtained?

Wind energy is obtained by harnessing the kinetic energy of moving air to generate electricity. This is typically done using wind turbines, which have blades that spin when the wind blows, activating a generator to produce energy. Wind energy is a renewable resource as long as the wind keeps blowing.


What is battery aging factor?

Your batteries if well taken care of will have many years of life. However, batteries will age over time and lose some of their potential. Because a battery array will work at the level of the weakest battery placing new batteries into an old battery array is a waste. We use best to account for the loss now as it also helps you keep the DOD (Depth of Discharge) down.

In solar battery charger is it more efficient time to set the solar cell in series or parallel For example if you have 2 of 1.5 V 2500mAh batteries and 5 8V 44 mAh solar cells?

For a very simple circuit, using only the solar cells and batteries and possibly a DC/DC converter to keep the voltage at safe levels for the batteries, placing the solar cells in parallel will yield higher current and shorten the charging time of the batteries. In the example you used by placing the five solar cells in parallel you obtain a theoretical maximum current of 220 mAh. This would bring the charging time to 2500/220 or 11.36 hours. This calculation assumes that for the full duration of charging the current is kept constant at 220 mAh.
