The diagrams below show the design for a wind turbine and its location.The diagrams describe a turbine to generate electricity from wind and three areas which are possible to obtain it. What stands out from the diagram reveals that there are four main features of the wind turbine. It can also be seen that the greatest place to produce electricity is in higher location.
First, the turbine consist of steel tower, blades, wind sensor, and generator. Fibreglass or wood is used for blades, whereas wind sensor has function as speed and direction controller. The first stage of the process begins when the wind turns the blades. Following this, the sensor at the back of the blades detects velocity and direction of the wind. Afterwards, generator connected with the sensor changes wind blow becoming electricity current (1.5 megawatts). In addition, computer is also used to receive data from sensor to display direction and angles of the blades and it is placed in house near by the tower.
Regarding to the location of the wind turbine, the turbine can be placed in the tower level of sea, but it does not generate the optimum electricity. Besides, the second alternative is in the domestic area where the turbine can produce 100 kilowatts of electricity. However, the most suitable area to gain maximum electricity is in plateau zone because its wind strength is more powerful than other places.
