The hub is where the blades connect. From here the blades are turned and the rotational power is transferred (maybe through a drive-shaft and gearbox) to a generator where electricity is generated.

How does wind turn a windmill?

Wind turns a windmill by exerting force on its blades, causing them to rotate. The rotation of the blades is connected to a central hub, which then turns a shaft connected to a generator, producing electrical energy.


How do you make a windmill?

A simple windmill consists of a vertical post with two rotating hubs - one vertical, one horizontal - attached at the top. Each hub is attached to the other, allowing the windmill to rotate horizontally and point into the wind. The vertical hub has slats attached radially to it, each one at a slight angle. As the wind passes over the slats, the Bernoulli principle (high pressure/low pressure) causes the vertical hub to rotate. By itself, a windmill is just decorative, but if big enough, it can be used to rotate grist stones in mills, run pumps, etc.

How windmill blades are attached and what angle blades are placed?

Windmill blades are typically attached to the hub at an angle known as the blade pitch, which can be adjusted to optimize energy capture. The angle at which the blades are placed, also known as the blade angle of attack, is typically around 5 to 15 degrees to allow for efficient energy conversion from the wind into rotational motion.
