Loomba used NI wireless sensor network (WSN) products throughout the trip. For example, he monitored the temperature one night when they camped out, successfully measuring temperature from 2 degrees to -6 degrees Celsius and withstanding wind velocity of 50 knots.Comment Wall

Hi Everyone,
i am the fourth year student at Aerospace Engineering Department in METU, and i worked in a Horizontal Wind Turbine Design Project. In this project, my duty is the structural optimization of the blade. I have made some literature research for this duty but i cannot decide to the type of algorithm which will be used in the project. Is there anybody can give an advise for the algorithm in such project. Thanks...
Mustafa Kaplan.

Hi guys
a bit quiet on the site, however I have a question.
How did the "half" bit work its way into the equation for wind power extraction potential?
That is: 1/2 * ρ * A * W3
Where A is area, W is wind velocity, p is air density etc?
Curiously yours
Ross
