A REPORT ON WIND ENERGY - Illinois General Assembly
cgfa.ilga.govDec 31, 2007 · Wind direction: This is an "upwind" turbine, so-called because it operates facing into the wind. Other turbines are designed to run "downwind," facing away from the wind. Wind vane: Measures wind direction and communicates with the yaw drive to orient the turbine properly with respect to the wind. Yaw drive:

Vertical Axis Wind Turbine Evaluation and Design
web.wpi.eduWind is generated from solar energy unevenly heating the earth. This uneven heating creates pressure changes in the atmosphere, generating wind. This wind can then be harnessed by a wind turbine. As the wind pushes the blades of a turbine, a generator attached to the axis of the shaft and when spun creates electricity that can be sent to the
