Description/AbstractThe authors explain the fundamental theory behind wind turbines as well as the basic mathematical models needed for their design. They give engineers a solid physical understanding of the dynamics of machines from both theory and field experience. Alerting readers to the engineering trade-offs inevitably encountered by designers, they provide the facts and data (complete with references) that enable engineers to design sound and cost-effective wind turbines.
