wind turbine design

Wind turbine design focuses on harnessing wind energy to generate electricity. A typical turbine consists of a tall tower with large blades attached to a rotor. When the wind blows, it spins the blades, which turns the rotor connected to a generator that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. Key design factors include blade shape for optimal aerodynamics, height for capturing stronger winds, and materials for durability and efficiency. Turbines are strategically placed in areas with consistent wind flow, contributing to renewable energy production and reducing reliance on fossil fuels, while also minimizing environmental impact.
