A wind turbine is a gadget creates electrical energy by changing the wind’s kinetic energy. Wind turbines are designed in an extensive variety of horizontal and vertical shaft. The littlest turbines are utilized for applications, for example, battery charging for caravans or boats or to supply power to traffic signals. Somewhat bigger turbines can be…

In 1913, Nikola Tesla discovered Tesla turbine was produced again in today’s technology. Tesla is a really genius smartest person i have ever seen. He invented AC Current Generators and Motors, Radio, Fluorescent, Radar, MRI, Laser Technology, Robotics Technology, Earthquake Machine and many more in fact, it can be used today, thanks to science, man. I think Tesla is clearly the best scientist. How does the Tesla turbine works ? Wind…

We know about turbines something less or more but have you ever think about how big wind turbines can be? Norway has announced plans to build the world’s largest wind turbine.  The turbine will measure 533 feet high with a rotor diameter of 475 feet.  With that big size will also come big power – the turbine is expected to…

Another type of turbine developed at about the same time as the Darrieus was the Savonius turbine, developed in Finland by S. J. Savonius. This is anothervertical axis machine which needs no orientation into the wind. Alternative energy enthusiasts often build this turbine from used oil barrels by cutting the barrels in half lengthwise and welding the two halves back together offset from…

The Darrieus wind turbines was patented in the United States by G. J. M. Darrieus in 1931. It was reinvented by engineers with the National Research Council of Canada in the early 1970’s. Sandia Laboratories built a 5 m diameter Darrieus in 1974, and has been strongly involved with further research on the Darrieus turbine since that time.…
