that wind is free :D
cheap and easy to maintain
The inward flow reaction turbine having radial discharge at outlet is called Francis turbine
The Savonius turbine is of simple geometry and its construction is cheap. It starts rotating a llower wind speeds as compared to its counterpart wind turbines, having a high starting torque. It produces low noise and can make use of the wind flowing in any horizontal direction to its rotation. However, in spite of these advantages, this wind turbine faces one main disadvantage of having low efficiency.
A home wind turbine allows the homeowner to generate electricity for their own use, as long as the proper equipment is on site. Thus the homeowner uses less electricity from the city and saves money. Should the amount of electricity generated exceed that of the homeowner's needs, many cities pay to use this electricity. In this way a home wind turbine might provide a net profit.
A wind turbine makes wind for scientific study.
wind turbines are placed to make use of wind energy, in the wind turbine an alternator having large gear mechanism is fixed , when the wind blows, the turbine moves, which in turn forces the gears to rotate, which in turn moves the alternator to generate electricity.
a wind turbine generates electricity for or use
A wind turbine is like a giant fan that produces energy from the wind
If the wind is too strong, a wind turbine can shut down automatically to prevent damage. This is done by either pitching the turbine blades to reduce their angle of attack or by activating a brake system to stop the blades from spinning. Additionally, some wind turbines are designed to withstand high winds by having stronger materials and construction.
wind is not created by the turbine but wind that passes through the turbine causes it to turn, and the faster the turbine spins the more energy is created that can be turned into electricity and other resources. Hope This Helps :)
Another name for a windmill is the wind turbine
A wind turbine moves when the wind blows against its blades, causing them to rotate. The rotation of the blades drives a generator inside the turbine, converting the kinetic energy of the wind into electrical energy.
