History of Wind-Mills:
UNIT-III WIND ENERGY
The wind is a by-product of solar energy. Approximately 2% of the sun's energy reaching the earth is converted into wind energy. The surface of the earth heats and cools unevenly, creating atmospheric pressure zones that make air flow from high- to low pressure areas. The wind has played an important role in the history of human civilization. The first known use of wind dates back 5,000 years to Egypt, where boats used sails to travel from shore to shore. The first true windmill, a machine with vanes attached to an axis to produce circular motion, may have been built as early as 2000 B.C. in ancient Babylon. By the 10th century A.D., windmills with wind-catching surfaces having 16 feet length and 30 feet height were grinding grain in the areas in eastern Iran and Afghanistan. The earliest written references to working wind machines in western world date from the12th century. These too were used for milling grain. It was not until a few hundred years later that windmills were modified to pump water and reclaim much of Holland from the sea.
The multi-vane "farm windmill" of the American Midwest and West was invented in the United States during the latter half of the l9th century. In 1889 there were 77 windmill factories in the United States, and by the turn of the century, windmills had become a major American export. Until the diesel engine came along, many transcontinental rail routes in the U.S. depended on large multi-vane windmills to pump water for steam locomotives. Farm windmills are still being produced and used, though in reduced numbers. They are best suited for pumping ground water in small quantities to livestock water tanks. In the1930s and 1940s, hundreds of thousands of electricity producing wind turbines were built-in the U.S. They had two or three thin blades which rotated at high speeds to drive electrical generators. These wind turbines provided electricity to farms beyond the reach of power lines and were typically used to charge storage batteries, operate radio receivers and power a light bulb. By the early 1950s, however, the extension of the central power grid to nearly every American household, via the Rural Electrification Administration, eliminated the market for these machines. Wind turbine development lay nearly dormant for the next 20 years.
Wind power or wind energy is the use of wind to provide the mechanical power through wind turbines to turn electric generators and traditionally to do other work, like milling or pumping. Wind power is a sustainable and renewable energy, and has a much smaller impact on the environment compared to burning fossil fuels.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Wind Power Plant
course outcome : 04
Explain Wind energy and wind turbines, wind types, site
selection, and environment impacts.
3. Importance of wind energy
• The wind is a free, clean and inexhaustible energy source.
• It is one of the most environment friendly and economically
viable source of energy.
• In general over the land area of earth , the wind energy
generated is about 1.65×105 Kwh.
• In hilly and coastal areas, the average wind speed is greater than
that in land.
• The wind speed increases with increase in height. Because as
height increases, the dragging effect of the earths surface
reduces.
4. Origin of Global and Local winds
• Sources of winds are as follows:
(a) Local winds
(b)Global or planetary winds.
5. Local winds
• Such winds are produced due to uneven heating and cooling of
ground surface, ocean ,lake , river surface etc.
• During day time cool and heavy air move from water surface to
ground surface. At night period, exactly opposite direction of wind
is observed , as the ground surface cools down earlier than the
water surface.
6. Global or planetary winds.
• Such winds are produce due to the daily earths
rotation as well as unequal temperatures at polar
and equatorial regions. As the earth rotates about
its axis, Coriolis force is produced.
• Cold wind flows from the polar to equatorial
region. At the same time , wind near ocean is
cooler than that near plain area. Hence cold wind
moves from oceans to plain areas.
7. Factors to be considered for site selection
(i) Availability of anemometry data - Superior wind speed(20 to
25km/h).
(ii) Availability of wind curve at the proposed site
(iii) Good road/ rail access to sites.
(iv) Suitable terrain and geology for onsite access for strong
foundation of tower
(v) Low population density .
(vi) Minimum risk of agro-forestry operations.
8. (vii) Close to suitable electrical grid or load center.
(viii) Supportive land holders.
(ix) Privately owned free hold land.
(x) Good industrial support for construction and
ongoing operations .
(Xi) Icing problem ,salt spray or blowing dust
should not be present at the site as they affect
turbine blades.
9. Factors affecting distribution of wind energy on surface of the earth
I. Because of continuous chain or line of the tall mountains, the air
gets channelized.
II. Because of the obstacles like the hills, tall buildings , tall trees the
direction of the air flow that is wind changes considerably.
III. Because of disturbance in climate after rains ,the wind speed gets
affected.
IV. Topographical abnormalities such as mountain gaps etc. affect
wind speed significantly.
V. The wind speed gets affected by frictional effect of the surface.
10. classification of wind power plant
A.Based on axis : i).Horizontal axis .
ii).Vertical axis
B. According to size (capacity):
i) small (up to 2KW).
ii) Medium size (2-100KW)
iii) Large size (above 100 KW)
C. Based on output power :
i) D.C output
ii) A.C output
11. Nature of winds
• The wind varies from one place to another.
• The nature of wind depends on general climatic conditions near
and around region, physical geometrical conditions at the region.
• The intensity of wind energy can be determine using beaufort
number.
• Beaufort number and corresponding wind speeds as below :
Beaufort number Wind type Wind speed (m/s)
1 More light 0.4-1.8
2 Less light 1.6-3.6
4 Moderate 5.8-6.5
10 Strong 25-29
17. Horizontal axis wind turbine is commonly used type
wind turbine. In this turbine shaft is mounted
horizontally parallel to the ground. All the components
are mounted on a tower of about 80 meter height.
Nacelle of Wind Turbine : Nacelle is big box that sits on
the tower and house all the components in a wind
turbine. It houses Power Converter, Shaft, Gearbox,
Generator, Turbine controller, Cables, Yaw drive
Rotor blades : they capture wind energy and converted
into mechanical energy of shaft.
18. Shaft : transfer rotational energy to generator.
Gear box : Increase the speed of the turbine shaft
from 30 to 60 rpm so that it matches with generator
speed of about 1000 to 1800rpm.
Electronic controller : senses wind speed wind
direction and controls the yaw mechanism. Its also
gives signals to the breaks to shutdown the turbine
in case of malfunction.
19. Breaks : stops the rotation of shaft in case of over
load or system failure.
Yaw mechanism : moves the rotor to align with
direction of wind to capture maximum wind energy.
Generator : converts rotational energy of shaft into
electrical energy.
Tower : supports entire setup at the higher
elevation so that blades can freely rotate away from
the ground.
20. Anemometer :It measures the wind speed and passes the speed
information to PLC to control the turbine power
Pitch Drive (pitch control) : Pitch drive motors control the angle of
blades whenever wind changes it rotates the angle of blades to cut
the maximum wind, which is called pitching of blades.
Yaw Drive (Yaw control): Blades and other components in wind
turbine is housed in Nacelle , whenever any change in wind direction
is there Nacelle has to move in the direction of wind to extract the
maximum energy from wind. For this purpose yaw drive motor are
used to rotate the nacelle .It is controlled by PLC that uses the wind
vane information to sense the wind direction
22. Vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT)
A type of wind turbine in which the axis of
rotation is perpendicular to the wind stream and
the ground. As the rotor surface in this type of
turbine moves in the same direction as of the
wind , they are called cross-wind axis rotor.
Types of vertical axis wind turbines
1. Darrieus turbine , 2. Savonius turbine.
23. • As the vertical axis turbine does not requires to be
pointed into the wind, these type of turbines are used
in the plants where wind changes direction
significantly.
• In this type of turbine, the tower is not essential as the
gearbox and generator can be placed near ground as
shown in the Fig.
• The main advantage is that maintenance is very easy.
• The overall efficiency of vertical axis turbine is
significantly less than that of horizontal axis turbine.

7. Installation and maintenance is difficult. 7. Installation and maintenance is easy.
8. Overall efficiency is more. 8. Overall efficiency is less.
26. Environmental Impact of wind Plant.
• Birds life : There is a danger of injury or death to
the birds because of rotating blades.
• Noise : The rotating blades, Produce high sound
level, noise which is many time unbearable.
• Commutation signals :The wind turbine can
interfere RF, Microwave , communication signals.
• Safety : The rotating blades may cause harm and
injury when any of these blades may break or get
damaging specially during high wind condition.
• Visual intrusion : wind turbine with their high
towers are visible over a wide area , thereby
disturbing the natural beauty of a site.
27. • Impact in ecosystem : large scale use of wind
generation can reduce wind speed and cause
stress to an ecosystem . Lakes that are down
will from the wind turbine might become
warmer because of reduced, evaporation from
their surface.
• Indirect entry use and emission : There is no
pollution or emission of carbon dioxide during
operation of wind turbine. But energy is
required to produce material used to construct
the wind turbine and its installation.
