I didn’t have an efficient dynamo, so the output was too not how much the wind turbine is designed to have.Īnyhow, currently I’m working on an efficient dynamo project and after that, I will make a giant wind turbine which makes a substantial amount of power to run a small house. Because I too was not satisfied with the output of that wind turbine project. But the comments were like, look, there’s no wind for sure, he’s probably tricking us, that’s not a dynamo, that’s a motor that is turning the wind turbine.īut the truth is I really enjoyed those comments. Since I used a pedestal fan to generate the wind to test my wind turbine the trees and leaves behind it didn’t move. To test that wind turbine I had to use a pedestal fan since there’s not much strong wind in my area. In this blog post, I’m going to show you how did I make that project with materials that are locally available. That’s when I realized how much people love Wind turbine projects. Without a doubt, it also got people’s attention. At Vector Renewables we are here to advise you on your renewable energy projects from start to finish.Soon after my horizontal axis wind turbine project video went viral on YouTube I thought I should make another project on “make vertical axis wind turbine”. This makes us experts in advising on the most efficient type of wind turbine for converting the kinetic energy of wind currents into electricity. Over the past 15 years, the Vector Renewables team has accumulated more than 30 GW of technical wind services, a testament to our extensive experience in providing consultancy services for these types of projects. At Vector Renewables, we are confident that we will part of this positive change for the planet. To choose the best wind turbine, these two parameters must be analyzed, especially in complex sites, using a project-specific site suitability analysis.īy 2030, wind turbines could reduce carbon dioxide emissions from power generation by 45%, according to the Spanish Wind Energy Association (AEE). Turbulence intensity (Categories A, B and C).

The international standard IEC 61400 establishes up to six combinations of categories regarding turbulence intensity and maximum wind speed: When it comes to stronger winds, such as those of an offshore wind farm, their structure must be prepared for the powerful onslaught. Wind turbines can be classified according to the strength of the wind they can withstand. Types of wind turbines according to their robustness Giromill: horizontal arms join vertical blades to the shaft. Mixed turbine: a blend of the two previous models. Darrieus: their blades are curved and rotate on their axis. Savonius: they can have different blade shapes and differential drive shafts. The edges do not need to face the wind and do not need a lot of vertical height to harness their power. The axis of rotation is perpendicular to the ground. Wind turbines with blades and vertical axis. The common horizontal axis wind turbine models use three blades, the most efficient solution.Ģ. The axis of rotation is parallel to the ground, and they have a great hub height and a rotor mechanism that guides the wind turbine to follow the changes of the wind directions.

These are the most common ones we can see in most Spanish wind farms.

Wind turbines with blades and horizontal axis. Types of wind turbines by shaft and bladesġ. So, let's take a closer look at how important the chosen wind turbine is. The choice directly determines how efficient a wind far converts the kinetic energy of wind currents into electricity.Įvery last detail of the wind farms we see every day are designed for maximum energy production: their location, the average wind force, the type of turbine. If there is one key factor when it comes to generating power from wind, it is the type of wind turbine.
