Wind Turbines


Welcome to My Wind Turbines Page



English: The three primary types of wind turbi...

On my wind turbine page you will find wind turbine mounts, wind turbines from several different company. The wind turbines are arranged by watts. Starting at 10W and going up to 5KW. When I updated the site if the wind turbine was not available on Amazon, I went to the company's page and added a link above the buy now button.

Each turbine will have an image, the features of the turbine and a small description. There will be a link to purchase and the price. (prices change) With more than one wind turbine, to look at on a page, this should be helpful. At least I hope it is.

Being an Amazon affiliate most of the links will take you to Amazon. I have add a title attribute, which will display the title if you hover over the link. That way you wont be shooting in the dark. All of the links will open in a different tab. (that's the way I like it).

HYenergy
$699.00

  • Innovative 5-blade design to maximize energy output at low wind conditions under 25 mph.
  • 60% MORE energy output at LOW wind than 3-blade turbine
  • Reliable two-moving-part maintenance free design, Nearly silent operation
  • Controller Electric speed limitation, blade over-speed braking
  • Strong Neodymium magnet PMA, Nylon fiber composite blades

Advantages of 5-blade wind turbines over 3-blade wind turbines
1) 5-blade wind turbines will greatly improve annual energy production in low wind conditions. For areas with average wind speeds of 11 MPH (5m/s). If you compare annual energy output to conventional 3-blade wind turbine, there is an increase of annual energy output of more than 60%.

2) 5-blade wind turbines will dramatically improve the reliability and safety in high speed wind conditions. The blade rotation speed of a 5-blade turbine is 60% of the rotational speed for a 3-blade wind turbine. 5-blade wind turbines will greatly reduce chance of over speed control malfunction. This will ensure operational reliability from a long term perspective.

3) The lower blade rotation speed of 5-blade wind turbine will lower wind turbine noise and make 5-blade wind turbines more community friendly than 3-blade wind turbines. Nylon-Fiber Glass High Efficiency blades is aerodynamically designed to regulate themselves, slowing automatically in high winds.
