Want to design your own DIY wind turbine, but don't know where to start? Everything you need is right here. This design guide explains the process and the math involved in detail, but in layman's terms. You don't need an engineering degree to build a safe, efficient wind turbine. From basic fluid dynamics and blade design using blade element momentum theory, to designing the generator itself from scratch - this guide covers it all.
Included are two easy to use spreadsheets for designing your generator and blades that eliminate the need to do all of the calculations yourself. Also included are two step by step build guides and 3D Google Sketchup models for a 1 kW and a 3 kW axial flux wind turbine.
