WIND TURBINE - SE Series - IOWA WIND TURBINES              

 SMOOTH ENERGY SERIES

 

 SIZES:  1.5kw,  3.5kw,  7.5kw (4th Q 2011)

This is one of the smoothest running Wind Turbines available on the market today.

Designed to make rated power at lower RPM’s keeps the noise level to nearly a whisper.

The patented blade pitch design is elegantly designed to smoothly respond to gusty wind conditions and also maintain maximum power output in those high “JACKPOT WINDS”®. This gives you the electricity production you paid for. The external evidence of this system is the “black rods” seen in the picture above. As the turbine spins faster, the centrifugal force causes them to pitch the 3 blades in unison thru linkage that is located & protected inside the nose cone.

 

The power curve diagram shows the results of this.

 

 

As you can see, the power goes up as the wind blows harder. Then flattens out at maximum KW output,,,but stays up there as the wind continues to increase in velocity.

There’s an old saying “Make hay when the sun shines”,,,well,,,”Make electricity when the wind blows”. Many competitive units will have an "Inverted V" and the power output drops back down,,,wasting those "JACKPOT WINDS"®.
