Questions and Answers

What is the formula for the kinetic energy produced by the wind when mass ma is moving at a velocity V?

E = ma V2

E = ½ ma V2 (correct)

E = ½ ma V

E = 2ma V

Which parameter represents the kinetic energy of air per unit volume of air?

Ev = ½ da V2 (correct)

Ev = ½ da V

Ev = da V2

Ev = 2da V2

What is the volumetric flow of air for a given area of the rotor, represented by?

Qa = V/A Ar

Qa = A/Vr

Qa = Ar/V

Qa = V Ar (correct)
