Question

how does a wind turbine work?

Answer 1

1)The wind turns the blades.
2)The blades turns a shaft inside the nacelle (the box at the top of the turbine).
3)The shaft goes into a gearbox which increases the rotation speed.
4)The generator converts the rotational energy into electrical energy.The transformer converts the electricity from around 700 Volts (V) to the right voltage for distribution, typically 33,000V.
5)The National Grid transmits the power around the country.

Answer 2

Answer:

Wind turbine can change the wind's energy of motion into electricity because it has generator. Generator is a device to generate electricity. When a strong wind blows, it will spin the turbine's propller. It then spins the generator and produces electricity.
