3
Titles: Introduction Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine (HAWT) Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) Considerations Wind Energy In Egypt Wind power Calculation
4
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
5
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.
7
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.
8
Wind Measurement: - Wind is the mean factor for wind energy. -There are many instruments for recording wind speed, for ex.: Anemometer
10
Direction of wind
11
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
12
Wind Turbine Types Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine (HAWT) Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT)
13
How To Generate Electrical Power By using Wind Turbines
14
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.
15
Types -Darrieus -Savonius:
16
Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine (HAWT)
17
Components
18
Degree of freedom: Yaw Drive Rotational Of Rotor
19
Pitch rotation: Electric Motor Hydraulic
21
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
27
Power: 230-400 MW Mean wind velocity=10 m/s Zafarana Wind Farms -Co 2 is decreased by 800 thousands tons every year due to this project
28
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.
32
Finally we wish you have just got sufficient information about wind energy,and it wasn’t a waste of time for you.
