1) POWER in the wind: (P, watts) Is proportional to the cube( 3 ) of: p = air density A = area intercepting wind; v = instantaneous wind velocity r = blade length 2) ex. If wind speed is 20% (1.2x) greater at one site compared to another, the power will be about_____ greater at that site. 3) Show equation to calculate:_______________ Reference wind.ppt on lecture page

r 4) POWER in the wind: (P, watts) Is proportional to the square( 2 ) of: p = air density A = area intercepting wind; v = instantaneous wind velocity r = blade length 5) ex. If blade length (r) is 2x greater on one wind machine compared to another, the power will be about____ greater on that machine. 6) Show equation:_____________________

Finding Available Wind Energy  Increasing tower height increases power exponentially.  7 ) Why?________________________________ …equation for relationship between power and height also, just remember cubed… V/V o =(H/H o ) a, where: V o is wind speed at original height V is wind speed at new height H o is original height H is new height 8 ) a (alpha): What is Alpha?_____________________ Over rough terrain, alpha = Over smooth terrain (water/ice), alpha = 0.1
