Wind Turbine Design

Importance of the WIND RESOURCE

Why do windmills need to be high in the sky?

Importance of Wind Speed No other factor is more important to the amount of power available in the wind than the speed of the wind Power is a cubic function of wind speed ▫ V X V X V 20% increase in wind speed means 73% more power Doubling wind speed means 8 times more power
