Wind Turbines

 We have been discussing different possible wind turbine designs and we chose a design, depicted in the Figure below, that intrigued us. It would generate electricity by a magnetic motor being driven by the power of wind energy to generate current in possibly copper wiring. The goal for this turbine design is to be able to be easily attached onto urban equipment, such as telephone poles, lamp posts, or on buildings and to supply electricity directly into the city power grid.
