Question

Calculate the power generated by a wind turbine operating in an environment with an average wind speed of 5.S meters per second. Assume that the swept area of the wind blade is 5 m^2 (b) The turbine above is installed at a height of 12 meters. Calculate the power that the turbine will generate if the elevation of the turbine is now at 20 meters. Calculate the required water flow rate for a dam that will generate 10,000 MW of electricity. W Assume that the dam has an hydraulic head of 200 m, and the water is flowing through the turbine at 3 m/s and the turbine efficiency is 80%. (b) If you neglect the dynamic head of the turbine by how much will the water flow rate changed?

Explanation / Answer

6) 1 EJ = 0.9478 quads

104 EJ = 104 * 0.9478 quads= 98.5712 quads

23.7 EJ = 23.7 * 0.9478 quads =22.46286 quads

40.9 EJ = 40.9 * 0.9478 quads =38.76502 quads

14.3 EJ = 14.3 * 0.9478 quads =13.55354 quads
