DIY Wind Turbine – Wind Energy 7

0 DIY Wind Turbine   Wind Energy 7http://www.WINDENERGY7.COM – - Our DIY Wind Turbine, connect with the DIY wind turbine dealer for your area. There are still areas open for new dealers to become the local source for wind/solar systems. So, if you are interested in becoming a home wind turbine dealer fill out the Contact Form at – WindEnergy7.com – and we can see if your area may still be open for you to become the home wind turbine dealer for your county.

You will find links to pictures that I have published of home wind turbine rooftop system installations done recently. Some are featured in newspaper articles and so forth. WindEnergy7 LLC has invented and filed for patents on a few of the technologies that make home rooftop wind turbines feasible. We have been busy training and supporting owners and dealers from California to New Jersey over the past couple of years to expand our network of local home wind turbine dealers.

Our home wind turbene systems are Wind/Solar Hybrid, and are qualified for government tax crdedits of 30%. So, for your investment made in these systems the IRS credits you back 30% within one year of purchase. You get 30% back from the IRS. So, basically the government will pay for almost 1/3 of your investment made in your new home wind turbine energy system. This includes all installation costs and expenses and is a real nice start on your investment payback.

Free electricity isnt all you get from a new home wind turbine, as soon as your system is up, you have improved your home value by atleast an equal amount of the investment. Your green energy home is more likely to sell compared to others with no home generation or emergency power system. Think about it. Look at homes for sale.. Can any of them generate their own free electricity, how many can compete with such a solid green energy capability like your home wind turbine delivers. Its also an attention getter and will bring people to see what its about if you ever need to sell, your home has a dramatic edge and a higher resale value.

The home wind turbine systems are designed for reliable power output for the next 30 years or so. With every price increase of the utility company power your investment gets better all the time. Utility costs are rising all over and will accelerate over the next few years. We expect the cost of electricity to rise and double over Obamas term in office due to cap and trade and increased regulation and market pressure.

To see more videos of our home wind turbines, go to – WindEnergy7.com – and you can find info about becoming an owner, installer, or dealer of our home wind turbine systems.keywords: diy solar panels, diy solar power, diy wind power, diy solar power kits, diy wind turbine, diy wind generator, diy wind turbine generator, diy wind energy, diy wind tunnel, diy wind turbine construction, diy windmill, diy wind belt, diy wind pump

What would create more power from wind or water energy? Multiple small generators or one large one?

What would create more power from wind or water energy? Multiple small generators or one large one?
Also, what determines the output of an electrical generator? Would size or speed of revolutions change the output?

I think the easiest way to explain this is to start at the beginning. Think of the flowing water (or air) as a momentum-carrying body that has kinetic energy that can be captured by your generators. The larger the area covered by your rotor (the blades of your wind or hydro generator), the more energy that can theoretically be produced. The swept area of the rotor is a circle – as you know from math, the area of a circle is pi multiplied by the radius squared. Therefore, the energy you can extract from generator increases proportionally to the square of the blade length (the radius). Therefore, it is generally much more efficient to have one large generator than it is to have multiple small ones. This is playing out in the wind industry today – 20 years ago the most cost-effective wind turbines were around 10-50 kW each, 10 years ago they were around 100-500 kW each, and today they are 1000-3000 kW each!

The output of a generator is dependent on the amount of torque that is applied to it and the speed at which it rotates. The generator needs to be sized appropriately according to the size of the rotor – you could but a 3000 kW generator onto a 50 m rotor diameter but it wouldn’t be very efficient. a 500 kW generator would be better sized to a 50 m rotor, just as a 3000 kW generator is appropriate for a much larger 100 m rotor diameter.

History And Uses Of Wind Power As An Energy Alternative / Documentary Video

2 History And Uses Of Wind Power As An Energy Alternative / Documentary VideoWind As An Energy Alternative / Educational video. Department of Energy. Produce by the Solar Energy Research Institute. Wind: An Energy Alternative. This program looks at the history and uses of wind power, used for centuries by humans to move boats, pump water and grind grain including discussions on efficiency, problems in the urban environment, experimental systems and windmill use across the United States. Producer: Department of Energy. Creative Commons license: Public Domain.

Surprisingly good short film about wind energy. What makes it valuable is the interviews with Marcellus Jacobs (a builder of wind turbines in the 1930s) and Ted Finch (whose efforts got the concept of net metering legally acceptable in the US). It’s interesting to note that one of the people listed in the credits, Paul Gipe, is still active in the industry. He’s now a leading author on the subject. His website is http://www.wind-works.org
