thanks for your reply. i am searching for a link where instructions are given to guide in this section.

hello, I am from India and completed my degree with distinction approved by AICTE. I am looking for admission in masters in mechanical engineering in germany. What i only know is one should know german language. Well what is the procedure to apply in any german institute and what are the...

hello, i am looking for a book that has a brief intro on vertical axis wind turbine and specially on savonius turbine. I need all the necessary equations to design one. I went through google search but din't find any that contains equations. I don't even know whether this section is...

the only thing you can take Is a power screw. you can find the equation for all

most of the blades i have seen for VAWT is aerofoil designed but this one is out of blue for me to design. From where to start design and what are the things that i should kept in mind while designing. Air flux it will take will be more but won't drag force more?

well! Google is your best friend. I have seen wind operated Archimedes screw using VAWT.

thanks for your interest. Learned different series of NACA. Didn't knew it has a wide family of numbers.

thanks. I downloaded X-foil and see no difference. Qblade does the same as X-foil. Now i am stuck to which NACA foil should i use, what material, which process to manufacture.. It seems i have lot more work to do. Done some study on NACA design and says as you shift down in number, the...

there is nothing discussed of blade design. I want to design on Qblade software (or any other that is used to design blade) but no manuals found to learn this software. I am searching for blades used to run at 3m/s to 12m/s where height to diameter ratio is 1.25.

Thanks alot..

hello folks, I am in mechanical stream & am working on a project of VAWT of power 300 watt. I found a link where i can calculate power output for different parameter. Here's the link: http://usvawt.com/cgi/windpower.cgi where i took height as 2m and width as 3m. Now need to design...

do you know any other way of pumping through solar without using solar cell? will solar concentrator work?

thank you for your interest in the matter etudiant, I am from India and i guess noonday solar power will be more.. One more thing i am confused, u said the cell efficiency is 10% only, what does that mean? I heard solar cell is most efficient way of converting into electricity. and how do this...

hello PFs, I am working on solar pump but unfortunately i am new to this. Confused which solar panel is best to buy for 1 HP pump. And even what type of pump to use. Want to make it as efficient and cheap as possible. Thanks.

can you please elaborate this technology.
