OverviewAerodynamicsPower controlOther controlsTurbine sizeNacelleBladesTower

Wind turbine design is the process of defining the form and configuration of a wind turbine to extract energy from the wind. An installation consists of the systems needed to capture the wind''s energy, point the turbine into the wind, convert mechanical rotation into electrical power, and other systems to start, stop, and control the turbine. In 1919, German physicist Albert Betz showed that for a hypothetical ideal wind-energ

Wind turbine design

In addition to the blades, design of a complete wind power system must also address the hub, controls, generator, supporting structure and foundation. Turbines must also be integrated into power grids.

How a Wind Turbine Works

Wind turbines work on a simple principle: instead of using electricity to make wind—like a fan— wind turbines use wind to make electricity. Wind turns the propeller-like blades of a turbine around a rotor,
