ABSTRACT:
This study configures a simple wind
tunnel using a blower for generating wind energy, which is equivalent to
natural wind, and a test system that measures properties of power. Also, the
mechanical and electrical power in a small-scaled wind turbine are empirically
measured to analyze the relationship between the mechanical and electrical
power.
