The diagrams below show the design for a wind turbine and its location. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.The figures inform the design for a machine that can produce electricity from wind power and the appropriate location to be placed. Overall, it can be seen that placing the turbine in the sea may not destroy the pleasure of the landscape while the turbine on the hill produces maximum electricity.
The equipment of wind turbine consists of blades created by wood or fiberglass material, wind sensor to detect speed and direction, the generator which can produce 1,5 megawatts power, steel tower, and computer to receive the data and adjust the direction and angle of blades. The process starts when the blades are forced by the wind and the force is converted to electricity by the generator. The direction and blades angle is adjusted by wind sensor and the computer.
The machine can be installed on the hill and in this case, it can be also installed in the sea. Placing wind turbine in the sea may not spoil the landscape while the turbine placed on the hill can maximally produce electricity because of maximum wind strengths. However, the domestic turbine can only produce 100 kilowatts of power.
