4.4. Wind turbine construction

Goal: Make a wind turbine model and check its operating parameters
Grouping: Working in pairs
Types of wind turbines (choose one type of WT):
Vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWT)
Savonius
Panemone
Darrieus
X wind turbine
Vortex without blades

Horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWT)

Three blades
One blade (Two blades, Multi-blades)
Off-shore (Off-shore mammoth-50-mw-wind-turbine-blades)
Additional notes:
Wind tree
Maglev wind: the future of the wind turbine
Tools and devices:
Wind turbine model.-
Hair dryer, toy engine, wires, multimeter, PVC pipes, plastic water bottle, wood, metals and
all the type of material and tools that you want to make the wind turbine model.
Hydrogen from water electrolysis.-
Measuring cylinder, crystalizer, NaCl, graphite pencil, wires, etc. (Lab devices).
