The little girl lay there‚ staring up at the huge expanse of blue above her. She could hear her mummy off to one side talking to a friend. They laughed. She wondered if the sky ever ended. “Sweetie!” The little girl sat up and looked at her mummy. She thought her mummy was very pretty. She liked the clothes mummy wore. She would be like mummy when she was older. “Sweetie‚ do you want a balloon?” She looked at where her mummy was pointing. An old wrinkly man stood there‚ holding a bunch of balloons

2.1 How Wind is Created. Wind is defined as air in motion. (1) When wind is being describe you first give the strength of the wind followed by the direction the wind is coming from e.g. extremely windy for a time‚ with strong to gale force and blustery west to northwest winds. (2) Wind is powered by the sun and by the rotation of the planet. Wind from the sun is caused by the uneven heating of the earth by the sun. The equator is heated much more by the sun than the poles. The hotter air expands

Fixed-speed induction generator Many modern wind turbines (especially those manufactured during the 1990s) use a four-pole induction generator‚ which is directly connected to the grid and therefore runs at an almost constant speed: a little over 1500 rpm. A speed-increasing gearbox is used to couple the aerodynamic rotor to the generator. Thus‚ the aerodynamic rotor also runs at an almost constant speed‚ which leads to the term: fixed-speed wind turbine. A very similar arrangement could well be used

Is Wind Power Green Julia Hoke SCI 207 Cynthia Collins December 10‚ 2012 1 Is Wind Power Green? As people around the world feel the sting created by the energy crisis‚ many electric companies and private individuals are seeking to find alternatives to fossil fuel contingent energy. Along with other renewable sources of energy available currently‚ wind energy is growing at a pace that is surpassing that of solar energy. With all the alternative energy resources‚ wind power does have

Effects of wind-loading on bridges Wind Loading Wind is a word that used to describe the motion of the air. It is the natural phenomenon which caused by temperature differential that is resulted from solar radiation. A moving wind that comes in contact with a solid structure will be distracted. Although the wind structure is not fully stopped‚ it still loses some of its velocity. This is due to the frictional force faced by the wind flow and the surface of the bridge. This phenomenon is actually
