In this page we will try to learn about wind energy, this means, the energy from the wind, and how to convert it in electricity to our home.
The most interesting type of wind generator, are the most simplest. This means, vertical axis type. Becose this type of wind generator don't requires any orientation system.
In this type of wind generator we have the Wind WM Genetator, that you can find in Wind-power Generator WM.
This new type of vertical axis wind generator, actualy in development by a group of spanish technicians, cas supply efficiencies graten than other generators, can deal with ranges of wind speeds that were not utilisable by existing models.
This device, consists of turning vertical blades that offer greater resistance to the wind when they are lotated in the front rotation area and practically no resistance. This is a very interesting and functional device.
The actual vertical axis wind generators can supply a Power Coeficient of 0.4 which is still far from teoric limit of 0.59. The Wind WM Generator can supply a Power Coefficient more close to this limit.
The Wind WM Generator can work with wind speed lower than 5 m/s and upper than 25 m/s, when others wind turbines can't work, becase they can support it, and requires to be stopped.
This new wind turbine can be installed in the top of your house becose don't requires a support tower.
I invite you to visit this page periodically, I have the intention of include details about design and construction of wind turbines and generators, including finite element analysis, this means, virtual wind tunnel.
