Titles: Introduction Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine (HAWT) Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) Considerations Wind Energy In Egypt Wind power Calculation
Introduction Wind Definition: Air blowing so fast from region to another. Wind Forming: -The sun heats the earth, thus in turn decreases pressure -Air is blowing from high pressure region to a low pressure region
History Of Wind Energy And Its Uses: - Wind energy used since 3000 B.C. in egypt to drive Sailboat -It is also used for Grinding of grain -It used also in china -It’s developed gradually to produce electricity by using wind turbines.
Wind farms specifications To benefit from wind energy,use more than turbine which called wind farm. -Specifications: -High speed. -Large area. -Away from city. -High height.
Wind Measurement: - Wind is the mean factor for wind energy. -There are many instruments for recording wind speed, for ex.: Anemometer
Direction of wind
Advantages & Disadvantages: DisadvantagesAdvantages Wind speed isn’t continues Simple source for electricity NoiseClean energy It may be harmful to some organisms like birds Decreasing CO 2 ratio
Wind Turbine Types Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine (HAWT) Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT)
How To Generate Electrical Power By using Wind Turbines
Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) AdVantages: -Working in multi directions. -Gear box and generators in the base -Num of blades can be increased. Disadvantages: -Needing energy for starting. -Low wind speed ; as it hasn't any tower.
Types -Darrieus -Savonius:
Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine (HAWT)
Components
Degree of freedom: Yaw Drive Rotational Of Rotor
Pitch rotation: Electric Motor Hydraulic
Considerations -Number Of Blades: Two or three blades are commonly used,but three blades are more useful. -Shape: Airfoil -Length Of blade: Usually it’s from 30 to 40 m. -Tower height: Usually from 70 to 90 m. -Blade material: Epoxy graphite is so suitable.

Zafarana - The largest Wind farms in Africa -Area=120 km 2 -Number of turbines=650 Wind Energy In Egypt
Power: MW Mean wind velocity=10 m/s Zafarana Wind Farms -Co 2 is decreased by 800 thousands tons every year due to this project
Zafrana Wind Project will consist of 8 projects and will have a generating capacity of 545MW making it one of the largest onshore wind farms in the world By 2020,Egypt aims to complete zafarana projects which consist from 8 projects.
Finally we wish you have just got sufficient information about wind energy,and it wasn’t a waste of time for you.
