The white fans that make electricity are called wind turbines. Wind turbines are devices that convert the kinetic energy of the wind into electrical energy through the use of rotating blades. When the wind blows, it causes the blades to spin, which in turn drives a generator to produce electricity. Wind turbines are commonly used to generate renewable energy from wind power.
Wind is caused by huge convection currents in the Earth's atmosphere, driven by heat energy from the Sun. The moving air has huge amounts of kinetic energy, and this can be transferred into electrical energy using wind turbines. Wind turbines cannot work if there is no wind, or if the wind speed is so high it would damage them.
Rarely because all though the day there are different amounts of wind. But now they have put gears on wind turbines so that when the wind is really strong it will spin the same speed as when the wind is very week, unless there is no wind. Or you could hook it up to a battery and then the power from the battery will have a very steady supply of energy
'Or else' what? Wind turbines make electricity.
Anemometer measures the speed of wind/liquid flow.It is a mechanical device with rotary propeller cups that rotate to measure the speed of wind.
A propeller is the object on the aircraft that rotates to produce thrust almost like a fan makes wind... it aims the wind behind it and pushes the aircraft forward
A ship is propelled by wind or a propeller, and an airplane is propelled by a jet engine, propeller or turboprop.

The length of a wind turbine propeller can vary depending on the size of the wind turbine. Generally, propellers can range from about 30 to 80 meters (100 to 260 feet) in length for large utility-scale wind turbines.
Wind energy can be converted to electrical energy in a windmill. Such a device features a large propeller that can be moved into the direction of the wind. Friction with the wind will cause the propeller to rotate. The propeller is internally connected to a dynamo which converts the rotational energy into electricity.
An aerovane is an instrument for measuring wind speed and wind direction, which combines a propeller and a tail on the same axis.
Windmills generate energy from the wind by using the motion of the air to turn the blades of the turbine. This rotational motion is then converted into electricity through a generator housed within the windmill.
The weight of a windmill propeller can vary depending on its size and design. On average, a typical propeller for a small residential wind turbine can weigh anywhere from 30 to 150 pounds, while larger commercial wind turbine propellers can weigh several tons.
The weight of a windmill propeller can vary depending on its size and material. On average, a small residential wind turbine propeller can weigh between 30-50 pounds, while larger commercial wind turbine propellers can weigh several tons.
The best propeller design is one that extracts the most kinetic energy from moving air over the greatest range of wind speeds. You would be astonished at the complexity and ambition of the math that has gone into designing them.
Wind energy relies on a propeller like instrument that is moved by the wind. When the blades of it are turning it is connected either directly, or through a set of gears to a generator of some kind. So that when the wind is blowing through the propeller causing it to spin it turns the generator which produces electricity.
