Question

Calculate the power of the turbine and generator igcse physics

Answer 1

The equation for wind power(P) is given by P= 0.5 x ρ x A x Cp x V3 x Ng x Nb where, ρ = Air density in kg/m3, A = Rotor swept area (m2). Cp = Coefficient of performance V = wind velocity (m/s) Ng = generator efficiency Nb = gear box bearing efficiency.
