What is, in MW, the power generated by a turbine that has a power coefficient equal to 0.24 when the wind speed is 10.3 m/s and the blades have a length of 34 m?
Round off your answer to 2 decimal places and do not include the unit.
An engineer designing a light aircraft is trying to make an estimate of the diameter of the propeller needed. The design speed of the aircraft is 69m/s into still air and at this speed experience allows the engineer to assume a propeller efficiency of 88%. Other analysis shows that a thrust of 10906N must be supplied by the propeller to maintain this speed. Assuming a constant air density of 1.19 kg/m3 , determine the diameter of the ideal propeller in m to 1 decimal place.
