Yes you're back!! I went to an interview yesterday and before that I had been watching your videos to help me.. hopefully I get the job

[Greguk]

Great video. Not seen this in this detail. Very informative and interesting. Thank you. Looking forward to seeing more content. Good to see you back

[peternaumann]

awesome video thanks so much for your time

[rutoamos]

Great visual clarity that matches the well explained principle

[englishmaninmedellin]

I like the way you include other engineering applications to explain the complex design. thank you for you videos!

[arbenkellici]

I like this video. Please keep making more videos on wind turbines Thank you!

[Crimson-katanas]

Glad to see a new video. In North America designing and engineering these are a lot less prevalent than Europe. This is amazing to see in a 3D model, I guess its basically a giant pitch propellor slapped on a turbine, in its most basic principles

[joeldarjonad]

One of the best types of engineering videos I have ever seen. Specially for "visual learners" as me.

[guitarplayerwannabee]

Excellent. So easy to follow. Thank you

[bekkbravo]

Good to see you again after almost 10 months.

[ciCCapROSTi]

Woohoo saVRee is back. And with some banger too, can't wait to watch the generator vid. Good work, John, as always!

[anacristinaaleixo]

Excellent video! With so many visual details. Congratulations.

[OLEGAREFYEFF]

You're back! I really love your videos and hopefully we'll see many more!

[WalterBurton]

Exactly what it says on the tin. Love it. 👍👍👍

Would you make an in depth video about aircraft structures and airframes? As much detail as possible about about the individual parts.

I also forgot to mention Toyota Priuses, Honda Insights, and Chevrolet Volts, all of which also use a CVT (albeit not an unreliable belt-and-pulley one used by Nissan and VW). All of the CVTs mentioned outside of the parenthesis have also proven to be very reliable. CVTs are one of the best inventions for enabling one shaft to be constant velocity while the other is having varying velocity from a totally mechanical means. This means fewer energy losses due to not having to do power conversion with rectifier-inverter sets for example. Wind turbines should all incorporate CVTs as standard so that the generator rotor can be constant-speed just like with conventional combustion power plants and hydropower.

Wow what an informative and clear visuals. Great job!
Question: what 3D software did you use to make such a video?

[ZbyněkMazák]

Uložený vodík může sloužit pro pro vodíkový auta. Poblíž větrníků může být infrastruktůra pro vodíkové stanice.

Just a small note, in the animation from 0.35 and further.
The blades are turning the wrong way.
The old wind mills did turn that way.
