Innovative Wind Turbines is a tribute to the inventors, entrepreneurs, researchers, and companies that through their efforts have envisioned, designed, and constructed models and prototypes for wind energy devices. There are numerous concepts and ideas on ways to convert wind energy into usable energy, and this book examines the innovative, novel, or unusual concepts with numerous photos and historical examples. Primarily, only prototypes that have been constructed are mentioned, along with a few design concepts. The wind turbines are divided by types: horizontal axis wind turbines, ducted wind turbines, vertical axis wind turbines, airborne wind turbines, and more.Features: Includes numerous photos of innovative wind turbines Presents information and examples of multiple rotor, multiple blade designs Includes information and examples of airborne wind energy systems Examines novel blade designs, including whale blades and biomimicry

The utilization of wind power and other renewable energy sources has been growing at a phenomenal rate. Wind Energy, Fourth Edition, explores the wind industry from its inception to today; presents the design, aerodynamics, operation, control, and applications; and examines the various types of wind turbines. It covers the characteristics of wind, such as shear, power potential, and turbulence, and discusses the measurement and siting of individual wind turbines and wind farms. It also discusses the political and economic factors regarding the adoption of wind as an energy source. This new edition is updated throughout and offers three new chapters, as well as a solutions manual for adopting instructors. This book:Is updated throughout and has three new chapters on climate change, energy storage, and observations.Illustrates the need for a shift to renewable energy through discussions on energy use and the order-of-magnitude estimates for the lifetime of fossil fuels.Discusses the interconnection of wind turbines to utility grids, regulations on installation and operation, and the related environmental concerns.
