What is meant by wind energy farm? Write one of its practical applications give any two limitations of using wind energy?
Answers
Wind energy form means wind is used for generating energy at high level of hieght using wind mill
Limitations
1:- It cannot be used everywhere
2:- It required large area to be build
3:- It require large force of wind to rotate the wings of wind mill and generate electricity
A wind energy farm is place where there are provisions to harness the energy of wind using windmills in large numbers. Such farms are put up in places where the wind blows mostly constant throughout the year predictably in required amount.
Application:
Wind energy farms can be used to generate electricity in a clean way.
Limitations:
Wind energy farms can be set up only at some specific places because it needs large area and also the amount of wind speed required should be strong and steady . The minimum wind speed necessary for satisfactory working of a wind generator is about 15km/h.
