How does a wind turbine work? | Sustainability - ACCIONA

How is wind power converted into electrical energy? You've probably seen sometime a wind farm: several wind turbines, like the old windmills that move their blades when the air blows. It is a simple process at first glance, but maybe you don't know what happens inside a turbine to convert wind power into electricity.

I have made a wind turbine for my physics project and I didn't know how it works. Now I have got it. You deserve a like.👍

Who else is here because of their teachers??!!

Man, mankind is truly amazing coming up with inventions like this

[ricconagy]

Thank you! This video is so clearly and easily explained in such a fast period of time. I needed this for a geography presentation and was dreading this would take hours. You probably saved me a lot of time!

[sonisaxena]

Wow!
We can learn many things from this video

I'm currently working on a rotor project and these videos help a lot. Soon I'll be training some guys how it's being made. It's actually interesting once you know what you do.

in my book i felt very difficult to.understand.. but here really super sir tq

[nalabrown]

Thank you for this. I got a A on my renewable statement test and now I was able to go to 6 grade

[sunny-txdu]

thank you i had no idea how this worked ffor my project untill i watched this it really helped

[deliciafernandes]

Helped me in my project, thank you so much❤️

Who else is here because they’re just weird and wanted to know? 😂😂😂

[HFriendly]

Thanks for this video, it has very helpful

school...but come on hes so close to 100k lets get him there

[arunamongar]

I never need to study because of this video❤

thanks bruh this helps me on my school work

One correction at 1:56: The vast majority of wind turbines use AC generators, so the electricity produced is AC. Is is then first rectified to DC in a rectifier and then inverted back to AC via a inverter. This disconnects the rotational speed of the turbine and the grid frequency. The rotational speed can thus be regulated to track the maximum power point (optimum tip speed ratio), which increases the overall efficiency.

Great video, but I wanted to know how the generator part of the turbine works...

[antonygaruda]

Thk you for this video its for are presentation

[aparnadole]

Wow!
Now I now how wind turbine works :)

When I was a kid I always wondered what the point of these things so simple, yet so effective in the running of our civilization.
