Have you tested and made calculations for wind turbines with sails, which operate at a wind of 2 meters per second, and in strong winds can gather sails and continue to operate?
Thanks Tihomir. We can discuss this and please email me lanka @ ieee.org
What is the Betz limit (the theoretical maximum efficiency) for a wind turbine?
The Betz limit is the theoretical maximum efficiency for a wind turbine, conjectured by German physicist Albert Betz in 1919. Betz concluded that this value is 59.3%, meaning that at most only 59.3% of the kinetic energy from wind can be used to spin the turbine and generate electricity.
maximum energy can be extracted from the wind if it is slowed down to one-third of its original speed. 59.3% is the maximum amount that can be extracted from wind
The Betz limit, proposed by German physicist Albert Betz in 1919, is the theoretical maximum efficiency for a wind turbine. This threshold, according to Betz, is 59.3 percent, which means that only 59.3 percent of the kinetic energy from the wind can be utilized to spin the turbine and create power.

Wind speed, air density, and blade radius are all factors to consider.
What are the generator types used in wind turbine?
There are three main types of wind turbine generators (WTGs) that can be considered for the various wind turbine systems, these being direct current (DC), alternating current (AC) synchronous, and AC asynchronous generators.

What is a device used for measuring wind speed and direction?
anemometer
The anemometer transmits the measured wind speeds to the controller
An anemometer is a device used for measuring wind speed and direction. It is also a common weather station instrument.
Anemometers measure wind speed and determine wind direction. Using these sets of data, meteorologists can calculate wind pressure
The controller receives the measured wind speeds from the anemometer.
D. What is the rpm of the generator shaft in a typical a wind turbine?
Large-scale turbines typically rotate at 20 rpm, while domestic sized turbines tend to revolve at roughly 400 rpm. In most large-scale turbines, the low speed shaft is connected to a gearbox. The gearbox increases the rotational speed of the shaft, up to 1200-1800 rpm.
The nacelle
Turbines on a large scale normally rotate at 20 rpm, whereas turbines on a smaller scale often run at 400 rpm. The low-speed shaft is usually coupled to a gearbox in large-scale turbines. The gearbox boosts the shaft's rotational speed to 1200-1800 rpm.

Wind power is generated by the force wind exerts on the blades of a turbine, causing the turbine's shaft to rotate at a speed of 10 to 20 revolutions per minute (rpm

What are the material used for wind blades?
wood, steel, aluminum and fiber glass
depending on make and model wind turbines are predominantly made of steel (66-79% of total turbine mass); fiberglass, resin or plastic (11-16%); iron or cast iron (5-17%); copper (1%); and aluminum (0-2%).
Wind turbine blades are primarily made of composite materials that combine high-tensile-strength fibers with polymer resins to form glass.

L. What is cut-in wind speed?
The cut-in speed (typically between 6 and 9 mph) is when the blades start rotating and generating power. As wind speeds increase, more electricity is generated until it reaches a limit, known as the rated speed. This is the point that the turbine produces its maximum, or rated power.
cut-in speed is The speed at which the turbine first starts to rotate and generate power is called the cut-in speed.it is between 3 and 4 meters per second
The cut-in rate is The cut-in speed is the speed at which the turbine initially begins to revolve and generate electricity. It moves at a speed of 3 to 4 meters per second.
Which mechanism is used to increase the speed of the generator shaft of wind turbine?
The combination of lift and drag causes the rotor to spin like a propeller. A series of gears increase the rotation of the rotor
The rotor spins like a propeller due to the combination of lift and drag. The rotor's rotation is increased by a set of gears.
The combination of lift and drag causes the rotor to spin like a propeller. A series of gears increase the rotation of the rotor from about 18 revolutions a minute to roughly 1,800 revolutions per minute -- a speed that allows the turbine's generator to produce AC electricity
