establish a wind farm in Nant y Moch in 2005, Nevertheless this project is still controversial and not completely accepted by some organizations and local people due to the negative effects that may be caused by wind turbines. The biggest and magnificent benefit from wind turbines is to generate adequate electricity to local people who are living near wind farm and to support British economy dramatically. In terms of this paper will identify and discuss three important factors related to a…
transformed into a wind turbine. Today the world is starting to realize that wind power is a clean promising new energy source which can serve as an alternative to fossil fuels. Wind energy turbines can be used as stand-alone applications connected to a utility power grid. For utility-scale sources of wind energy, turbines are usually built close together to form a wind farm that provides bulk power. Several electricity providers use wind farms to supply power to their…
power, the more greenhouse gases are emitted into the air, destroying the Earth’s ozone layer. Wind power is not the single or immediate solution to this problem, but it is a start. Unlike power plants that combust fossil fuels to create energy, wind turbines don’t release carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxide,…
A comprehensive performance analysis of an EAHE could supply great help for the design and application of EAHE in gas turbine. At first the soil temperature at different depth along the year was evaluated to determine the optimum depth for high performance and low economical cost. Then the effect of structural factors including the pipe length and inner diameter, in addition the effect of air velocity passing through the pipe on the performance were studied. The air temperature at the inlet of…

To identify the preferred rotation direction, a blower performance analysis is needed. A blower is usually an enclosed multiblade rotor that compresses air to a higher discharge pressure. Blower is also known as fan, but, traditionally, blowers do not discharge air at low pressure as some fans do. Figure 1.6 – CENTRIFUGAL BLOWER Dryers use centrifugal blower, where air is radially discharged from the impeller, (or fan wheel), so turns 90° from its inlet to its outlet (Figure 1.6). Air…
