The Betz Limit in Wind Turbines

How much energy is in the wind? How efficiently can wind turbines convert the kinetic energy in the wind to mechanical energy of the rotating blades and then via the hub, shaft and gearbox and generator to electric energy? In this video I will answer these questions, covering the following topics along the way: formula for kinetic energy in wind how the air flowing over a wind turbine blade creates a lift force which has a torque component that acts to turn the blade (wind turbine blade velocity triangle) formula for power available in the wind why a wind turbine can't extract all the energy from the wind law of conservation of mass the Betz limit - maximum possible efficiency of a wind turbine ducted and shrouded turbines and how they can "beat" the Betz limit the wind turbine stream tube This video is the first in a series on "How do wind turbines work?". Keep an eye out for future videos where I will explain 2D classical aerodynamic theory that you can use to analyse and design a wind turbine blade.

A very good read if you want to get better at sorting hype from reality in renewable energy technologies. http://www.wind-works.org/cms/index.p...

This is the book that I quickly zoom through in the video, and it is by far my favourite resource for wind energy engineering theory. Available to buy from Amazon, or your university library probably has it! https://amzn.to/32Pb1fh There is also a decent explanation of the Betz limit on Wikipedia :-) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betz%27...
