Abstract

wind power generation techniques are being promoted all over the world as a beneficial alternative among other renewable sources (Li, Chen 71). A wind turbine is defined as a rotating machine that is used to generate power by means of converting kinetic energy to mechanical energy. Kinetic energy is formed when the blades of the turbine captures wind, making the blades rotate in its axis. This motion of the blades creates mechanical energy that is used to generate electricity (Mahoney 1).

wind turbines are very useful in power generation especially in places where wind velocity ranges from intermediate to high level. According to studies, wind contributes only less than 1% of the world's energy needs (Grose 1). Even if the percentage of contribution is very low, the use of wind turbines as means to generate electricity grow continuously. This is because people nowadays discover the good benefits of using wind turbines in terms of environmental factors.
