How Does Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine Works

Horizontal-axis wind turbine systems convert wind energy into electricity by rotating blades around a shaft aligned parallel to the ground. Aerodynamic shaping and directional alignment allow a horizontal-axis wind turbine to capture energy efficiently as airflow moves across the rotor. Airflow interaction with blade surfaces initiates rotational motion through lift forces that produce continuous rotation. … Read more
