WIND POWER; RATIONAL ENERGY INTO ELECTRICITY?
May 2nd
Question by malice:
wind power; rational energy into electricity?
how does wind power work?
i know that
the turbine blades capture wind energy and begin moving,
they spin a shaft that leads from the hub of the rotor to a generator
The generator turns that rotational energy into electricity.
but how does the generator turn the rotational energy into electricity?
please include a reference if you can.
thanks

Q&A: HOW CAN I CHECK IF MY WIND GENERATOR PRODUCES ELECTRICITY?
May 1st
Question by samc1994:
How can i check if my wind generator produces electricity?
I’ve built a wind turbine which i hooked up to a small generator i purchased off ebay for $ 20 bucks, and it did not specify how many RPM is needed to produce adequate electricity. So im wondering if there is a way to test if the two positive and negative wires coming out the back produce an electrical current. Does any one have any ways to check if it works? But i do not have one of those voltage meters which you measure stuff like that, so are there any alternatives? Please help. All answers appreciated!!
thanks
