The wind turbines are used to change the kinetic energy to electrical energy & mechanical power as we all know that but what happens inside of that mechanism is what is important. Most turbines have from 2 to 3 blades and the wind moving over the blades causes them to rotate, as the blades rotate they spin the shaft which is connected to the electrical generator. Turbines are complicated machines that includes sophisticated gearboxes for increasing the spinning…
