Initial Pro/ENGINEER Wind Turbine Design

Figure: Rough Pro/ENGINEER Wind Turbine Design

 
The wind turbine has been designed utilizing Pro/ENGINEER in order to construct a potential prototype. It is still not known the exact amount of blades to use for the design, and to what specifications the blade curvatures need to be. More research is being done to understand the mechanics of wind energy versus the amount of blades on a wind turbine, and to acquire the maximum power from the generator.
