    technology advances. Wind energy is produced by wind turbines. These turbines work kind of like a fan in reverse. Instead of have electricity turn the blades of the fan, wind turns the blades in order to produce electricity. The blades are connected to a shaft inside the turbine and when the wind turns blades, the blades turn the shaft. The shaft is connected to a generator in which makes the electricity. (How Do Wind Turbines Work?) The turbines are connected to transmission grids in order to…

    power wind turbines are used for harvesting energy. Due to their enormous size and due to the fact that wind turbines may be subjected to extreme wind conditions during their lifetime, it is imperative that proper assessment of wind load should be carried from structural safety point of view. It is observed that very little information is available in published literature. Generally there are three main sources of information to establish relevant wind loading schemes for wind turbine design.…

    Wind turbines operate on a simple principle; the force of the winds called “lift” pushes the blades of a wind turbine up, allowing it to turn the blades around a rotor. The rotor is connected to the main shaft which spins the gearbox whose gears convert the relatively slow rotation of the spinning blades into higher…

    Chapter:-1 Introduction 1.1 Introduction:- A Wind Tunnel is tool used in Aerodynamics research to study the effect of air moving past solid objects. A wind tunnel consists of a tubular passage with the object under test mounted in the middle. Air is made to move past the objects by a powerful fan system or other means. The test object, often called a wind tunnel model is instrumented with suitable sensors to measure aerodynamic forces, pressure distribution, or other aerodynamic related…
