Calculation Formula

P = 0.5 * ρ * A * v³

Where:
P = Power Output (Watts)
ρ = Air Density (kg/m³)
A = Swept Area (m²)
v = Wind Speed (m/s)

Wind Power Turbine Calculator Calculator Usage Guide

Learn how to use the Wind Power Turbine Calculator calculator and its working principles

How to Use the Calculator

  1. Enter the air density in kg/m³.
  2. Enter the swept area of the turbine blades in m².
  3. Enter the wind speed in m/s.
  4. Click the "Calculate" button to compute the power output.
  5. The power output will be displayed in watts.

Working Principle

The calculator uses the formula \( P = \frac{1}{2} \times \rho \times A \times v^3 \) to calculate the power output of a wind turbine. This formula is derived from the kinetic energy of the wind and the area swept by the turbine blades.

Example

If the air density is 1.225 kg/m³, the swept area is 100 m², and the wind speed is 10 m/s, the power output would be:

\[ P = \frac{1}{2} \times 1.225 \times 100 \times 10^3 = 612,500 \text{ watts} \]
