   How does a windmill work?

   • A turbine, like the ones in a wind farm, is a machine that spins around in a moving fluid (liquid or gas) and catches some of the energy passing by. All sorts of machines use turbines, from jet engines to hydroelectric power plants and from diesel railroad locomotives to windmills. Even a child's toy windmill is a simple form of turbine.

   How do wind turbines work?

   • W ind turbines look like airplane propellers running on the spot—spinning round but going nowhere. They're serving a very useful purpose, however. There's energy locked in wind and their giant rotors can capture some of it and turn it instantly into electricity. Have you ever stopped to wonder how wind turbines work? Let's take a closer look!

   What types of machines use turbines?

   • All sorts of machines use turbines, from jet engines to hydroelectric power plants and from diesel railroad locomotives to windmills. Even a child's toy windmill is a simple form of turbine. The huge rotor blades on the front of a wind turbine are the "turbine" part. The blades have a special curved shape, similar to the airfoil wings on a plane.

   How do turbine blades swivel?

   • In most large modern turbines, the rotor blades can swivel on the hub at the front so they meet the wind at the best angle (or "pitch") for harvesting energy. This is called the pitch control mechanism. On big turbines, small electric motors or hydraulic rams swivel the blades back and forth under precise electronic control.

   iopscience.iop.org › article › 10

   Mar 1, 2021 · The lightweight design scheme of spinner was obtained by optimizing the layout of the stiffener and the laminate parameter. The structure analysis results indicate that the optimized spinner model meets the requirements in terms of comprehensive performance, while the quality is greatly reduced.
