Principle
In Europe, relatively large metallic formations with three rotor
blades can currently be found as wind turbines, while four blades
used to be common in windmills and even more rotor blades can be
found elsewhere. Each design has its individual merits and can be
considered suitable under the particular conditions.
In this experiment, the effect of the number of rotor blades on the
performance of the wind turbine will be investigated. For this
purpose, two series of measurements are taken with different
numbers of rotors, and the distance between the fan and the rotor
blades is also varied in order to obtain a comparison for different
wind speeds.
Benefits
- Part of a system solution - easily expandable for further experiments
- Simple teaching by using the demo board physics
- Clear test execution by using ADM3 multimeters
