How to Harvest and Store Wind Energy
Wind power is the use of the wind''s kinetic energy to generate electricity or mechanical power. The use of wind power to pump water and grind grain has been around for centuries. In a basic windmill, the force of the wind pushes against the front side of the sails of the windmill causing them to turn. This rotation in mainly caused by drag.
How Do Wind Turbines Work? | Department of Energy
A wind turbine turns wind energy into electricity using the aerodynamic force from the rotor blades, which work like an airplane wing or helicopter rotor blade. When wind flows across the blade, the air pressure on one side of the blade decreases. The difference in air pressure across the two sides of the blade creates both lift and drag.
