(4 points) A large wind turbine is used for electricity generation. The turbine has a blade span diameter of 53 m and is installed in an area that has steady winds at 5.6 m/s. The efficiency of this wind turbine-generator is 34.8 %. The density of the air is 1.25 kgm3kgm3.
What is the power generated from this windmill?
If the blade span diameter is reduced by 33 %, the efficiency of the turbine-generator increases to 73.428 %. What is the power generated from this new design.

7.26. The conversion of the kinetic energy of wind to electricity may be an attractive altemative to the use of fossil fuels. Typically, wind causes the rotor of a turbine to turn, and a generator converts the rotational kinetic energy ofthe rotor into electricity. Power generated by a wind turbine (Ws) can be estimated from the density of the air (p), wind speed (u), and turbine rotor diameter (D) using the following formula лD? 1 W. ти* х п, where...

F A large commercial wind turbine has a wing span (diameter) of 110m. On a still summer day, the turbine was not rotating at all. A big dumb Canadian goose flew into the turbine, impacting one of the blades. The goose's velocity at the moment of impact was directed perpendicular to the blade, as in the picture to the right. The impact was at distance d 47.27 m from the center of rotation. The goose was in contact with the...

The state of Iowa is among the top three states in U.S. in wind power generation. In 2016, over 20 billion kWh of electrical energy in Iowa was generated by wind power. Assuming that wind speed at the altitude of wind turbine is in average of 6 m/s, the efficiency of converting wind energy to the electricity is 80 %, and all wind turbines work constantly throughout the year. We can further assume that the air in Iowa has an...
