Hi All, The November 2005 issue of Energy Self Sufficiency Newsletter is online at http://www.rebelwolf.com/essn.html Yes, it's a few hours earlier than usual...
I have watch with interest several post to this group regarding Global warming, the kyoto treaty, and bird kills by wind turbines. Some relievent facts that...
I visited the web site of MIKE's WINDMILL SHOP for about a year ago and thought that this was to much homebrew, no power curves etc. Now, one of our faithful...
Dears members of our Group By using the constructal theory of the romanian-american scientist Adrian Bejan and the works of Watts and Fish from U.S.A...
From time to time we get a report where a customer has to purchase a new set of blade for their turbine because it has a run-in with a bird. Although it ...

Hello from NE Wisconsin: There is a fellow who wrote me asking to have five years worth of wind data to work with for a statistics program that he is working ...
An Interesting article in the Energy server Ezine, The world map is good. Start at page 5. Geoff Thomas. Advanced Wind Technologies. Great White Hope Wind...
Just built a small wind turbine out of an old motor which to give me 28volt o/p needs to rotate at about 1200 rpm. The blades are made of flat aluminium 3mm...
Good point - We should get our priorities right and extrapolate this - If we prohibit the use of automobiles because too many people get killed in car...
Dear Dr. Ungureanu, [I knew a medical doctor named Alexandra Ungureanu back in my Army days - an American citizen born in Rumania; any relation?] ... I suggest...
... Plese take care with the aluminium blades. the will crack and fly off. AT 1200 rpm this could cause some injury. You will need shorter and or thinner...
A normal car kills more birds per year than any wind turbine does ... An average wind turbine is spinning about 5000 hours a year, a car only some hundreds....
Hello All: I am new to the group, and am interested in developments in wind power. Long ago and far away, I was involved in the "back to the land" movement,...
I make home build wind generators from DC motors and sell at a reasonable price to try to get the masses interested in RE and it sure is a hard sell even at...
Why stop there? There is no single act that has the impact on the environment that reproduction does. Why not limit reproduction a la the Chinese model? ...
Is this a college rag week stunt! Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought there was a fairly low resistance pathway between points of different barometric...
hello group thank for taking me into your group .I want to represent myself in a few lines. I have got an interst in windenegy this summer as I looked for ways...
As a digest reader, I request out of courtesy that people try to trim their posts when they reply. Lately people have been including the better portion of a...
I am new to this site but I have been into setting up my own windmill for a few years now. My name is Jack and I would be glad to add as much as I can. I have...
CHEYENNE, Wyo. - Recent howling winds have been like sweet music to one local company, which says its new vertical wind turbine is substantially more efficient...

With the recent spike in energy prices, I've become much more interested in home power generation and energy options. But these topics seem so vast and I do...
Dear members of our Group As many of you are interested into constructal turbines please check the file let.doc from the folder constructal. All the best ...
Maybe a long shot, but maybe some participants on this group are knowledgable RE careers in the Wind power sectors, or initiating this process. I am a Civil...
Hi.. Presently i am working on a small wind turbine simulatorsystem. A seperatly excited dc motor is basically representing a wind turbine. Wind turbine model...
Benjamin, Consider the round-trip efficiency. Battery systems typically release 70% of the energy that was used in charging. The water storage approach is used...
Benjamin, I'm not sure that a water regeneration scheme would be practical on such a small scale. However, this approach has been used on a large scale ...
... yes, on the very large scale they can be quite efficient. But on the smaller scale the battery wins. Here i the UK there are several large pumped storage...
Good Morning; I am new to this list, the reason I signed is to learn more about alternative energy. specifically wind power and solar power. I am trying to do...
