Q1: The average wind velocity in a particular area is found to be 5.5m/s. It is proposed to install a wind driven turbine with a blade radius of 1.8m. The proposed design has an interference factor of 0.21 and an axial force coefficient of 0.89, and a torque coefficient of 0.8. Determine: a) The expected power output of the turbine. b) Thrust on the turbine. c) Torque on the turbine. d) Rotational speed. Q2: Wind speed measurements at a particular location have been obtained with a view to the possible installation of a wind turbine. The anemometer was located 12.5m above the ground level. The average wind speed recorded during the testing was 9.2m/s. Estimate the variation in wind speed across the 40 m diameter of the proposed turbine if the hub is installed 30m above the ground.
