The document discusses the design of a wind turbine project near Idaho Falls, Idaho to generate 300,000 kW/hrs per year. Wind data for the site was obtained and analyzed, which showed average wind speeds of 7.5 m/s. Based on the wind speeds, an Energy E15 65kW wind turbine was selected that has a cut-in speed of 4m/s and cut-out speed of 26.8m/s. Load calculations were performed and showed the turbine could withstand the wind forces. While one turbine would generate around 145,000 kW/hrs, two turbines are needed to meet the project's goal of 300,000 kW/hrs of annual energy production.
Our earth’s interior - like the sun – provides energy from nature. This heat – geothermal energy – yields warmth and power that we can use without polluting the environment.
Geothermal heat originates from Earth’s fiery consolidation of dust and gas over 4 billion years ago. At earth core – 4,000 miles deep – temperatures may reach over 9,000 degrees F

An energy audit is an inspection survey and an analysis of energy flows for energy conservation in a building. It may include a process or system to reduce the amount of energy input into the system without negatively affecting the output. In commercial and industrial real estate, an energy audit is the first step in identifying opportunities to reduce energy expense and carbon footprint.

Statistical Analysis of Interrelationship between Money Supply Exchange Rates...Atif Ahmed
Several researches have been conducted to study the impact of different macro-economic variables and their influence on government expenditure. By using different statistical tools researchers have examined that how money supply and exchange rate influence the government expenditure. Few other studies also conducted work on the quarterly time series data to examine the long run equilibrium association between the macroeconomic variables.

Wind Energy harvesting systems have been around for centuries. These systems have been used to grind wheat, pump water and up unit the early 20th century, to produce electricity. In the 1970’s, the increase in the cost of crude oil sparked a wind energy race and which led to the rapid expansion of wind harvesting technology. Since then, wind turbines have evolved from small 100 KW units to large, highly efficient 8 MW power-generating machines. Even after such expansion, there is ample room for technological growth and application of wind energy harvesting systems in the United States.
Project Background
Currently in Arizona, the majority of the energy produced is generated from the Hoover and Glen Canyon dams in the northern sector of the state, and from the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station in Tonopah producing a combined percentage of 33.8 of Arizona’s energy [1]. Because of Arizona’s Renewable Environmental Standard, by law, Arizona is required to produce 15 percent of its electricity consumed from renewable energy sources by 2025 [2]. Since hydroelectric power is already heavily used throughout Arizona, other forms of energy must be explored such as wind energy.
Although wind energy can be an excellent complement to hydroelectric plants for producing renewable energy, Arizona only generates 0.48 percent of its energy from wind production [3]. Even with this low amount of energy produced, Arizona has a good outlook for wind production in its northern sector. As depicted in figure 1 [4], there is a band of good wind resources beginning from the city of Peach Springs, extending southeast to the city Springerville.
In order to expand Arizona’s wind energy production, our Client, David Willy, has asked our team to conduct research in Wind turbine development in Arizona. Mr. Willy is a professor at Northern Arizona University teaching various engineering courses ranging from C.

Business Case:
(“WHY” should this project be done? Identify the specific current and future business needs that this project meets. State how the proposed project aligns with the strategic objectives of the business area and organization.)
Innovative methods to save energy are needed with continued escalation in energy costs. One area is in automotive applications where the objective is to increase the efficiency in miles per gallon(mpg). Moving an average vehicle through still air at a velocity of 70 miles per hour(mph) requires from 30 to 80 horsepower depending on the design and size of the vehicle. This energy is wasted and not recoverable. One method to recover some of this energy is to utilize a fan or turbine to convert the moving air to electrical energy. Depending on the size of the fan and generator that is powered by the moving air, up to 1 to 2 horsepower could be generated at 70 mph. If the air driven generator could supply the vehicle’s electrical load at highway speeds, this would reduce the load to the gasoline driven engine thus increasing gas mileage. Average gas mileage could increase up to 5 mpg if a wind driven generator could supply the electrical energy to the vehicle at highway speeds. This project is to evaluate the feasibility of this concept. If proven by laboratory measurements, air driven generation of automotive electrical energy would have a significant impact on fuel usage. In addition, an engineering project of this type would result in patentable inventions and potential monetary benefit to MTSU. A successful program would lead to visibility for the University and increased student enrollment. These objectives are in line with the strategic goals of the University.
Scope /Project Deliverables:
(“WHAT” will the project deliver? Scope answers the question “What will be done on this project, and what are the products or services that will be provided? Deliverable – What are the measurable products, components, and services produced by the project? How will you know when you are “DONE”)
A laboratory-size wind tunnel will be designed and built to provide an adjustable wind velocity from 20 to 70 mph through a circular tube having an 18 inch inner diameter and 8 feet long. A fan driven D.C. generator will be positioned at one end of the circular tube connected to a suitable resistive load with the capability to measure generator output current and voltage. Measurements will be taken to determine the maximum electrical energy generate ...

Subject: Development of Wind Turbine in Idaho Falls, Idaho Area
The scope of this project is to design a wind turbine in order to harvest 300,000
kW/hrs/year out of the wind at a location just southeast of Idaho Falls. Our design parameters
are to pick a turbine and blades, derive and consider all loads to the system, asses the
aerodynamics of the blade, specify overspeed control considerations, and to choose a
generator. Multiple turbines can also be used to achieve the 300,000 kW*hrs/year design goal.
Research must be done to find site specific problems that may occur. Using the resources from
ETME 491, ETME 491 lab and various other websites, these parameters can be met. This
project does not encompass business or cost analysis neither does it consider the design or any
transmitted loads from the foundation of the tower. The location used for the wind data closely
represent the coordinates assigned for this project. Some assumptions that were made were
that 80 meter wind data would work for the calculations because of lack of other data, twelve
years of data is sufficient, and the average energy output is 300,000 kW*hrs/year.
