A vertical wind generator harnesses wind power and turns it into electricity. This can then be used to charge batteries or powering lights for smaller generators. Larger turbines are used to generate so called green energy for the national grid.

Who invented the wind generator and how does it work?

The modern wind generator was developed in the early 1980s by Danish engineers. Wind generators work by capturing the kinetic energy of the wind and converting it into mechanical power through the rotation of turbine blades, which then drives a generator to produce electricity.


In what order does the wind go through to get to the generator?

Wind flows through the rotor blades, causing them to spin. The spinning rotor turns the shaft connected to the generator. The generator converts the mechanical energy from the spinning shaft into electrical energy.

How much is a wind power generator?

The cost of installing a home wind power generator depends on the kilowatt it produces. A 1 kilowatt wind power generator usually costs $3000-$7000. A 7 kilowatt wind power generator costs $20,000-$40,000. The more kilowatt it produces, the more costly it is.

Where can vertical wind generators be found?

Vertical wind generators (turbines) are used in the midwest, where the wind is a major factor. There are international wind farms which supply electricity from the power of these generators.


How does wind power produce electricity?

In essence, the wind turbine collects kinetic energy from the wind and transfers it to the generator. The blades on the turbine turn as the wind blows. As these blades move, they rotate a shaft connected to the rotor of a generator. The spinning magnets of the generator convert that rotational energy into electricity.
