Hi I thought your video was really quite good, well done. Only problem was the quality of the visuals you provided they were difficult to se clearly but the content and calculation methodology was really good. I was looking for something on small hydro power generation but this was in the ballpark.

what if the wind was blowing in a different direction. Not against the blades but side ways.

Those calculations are pretty handi.I am so going to impress my lecturers and mates.
cheers.

Well explained.Very interesting.Thanks!

Some things which you should consider when calculating the generated power.The power is proportional to the wind speed cubed. The mean wind speed used should be corrected for the appropriate height, for example if the mean wind speed at 50m height is 8mph then the expected wind speed at say 10m is (8mph/U)=(50m/10m)^0.143 where U is the mean wind speed at 10m. Also a Weibull distribution can accurately approximate the probability of a given wind speed for any site.

man, you could build a website with all this information, this would be cool!

Can you suggest a type of wind turbine I can build for pumping water. I'm researching but having a tough time choosing.Here are some of the specs I know. The pump will have a stroke of about 1/4 ".The diaphram will be about 2" in dia. The water will be pumped up about 8ft. and straight across 15ft. Any suggestions??

@chrisnotapI just need a few pieces of information to finish give you an approximation flow rate you desire ( gallons per minute or liters per minute) , the average wind speed in your area

Sorry for my last comment I just saw the wind turbine and saw how it works. LOL.

That is how new ideas come about by people asking basic questions. Keep asking questions it is a great way to learn.
