Exceptional Engineering: The Making of a Wind Turbine | Engineering Documentary
Electricity harnessed from wind has become the second largest source of energy in Germany since 2017 - and has thus out powered nuclear and coal. Nearly 30,000 on- and off-shore wind turbines are operating throughout the country, covering approx. 19 percent of energy consumption. Our report follows the construction of a new wind power plant in Falkenthal in Brandenburg. Once installed, the windmill will be 179 meters high, supplying up to 5,000 households a year.

    @@danchang9976 But that isn't true. The only reason coal and gas plants close is because they are disadvantaged compared to special treatment that wind gets financially. First if wind energy is being generated then it gets first priority for use (it HAS to be bought by the electric companies) - so in windy weather the gas and coal plants have to 'stand down' and they get no compensation. But if it is so windy that all of it cannot be used then the wind companies get paid even though all the wind isn't used! This puts coal and gas at financial damage. Also what happens when the wind doesn't blow? We just had a week of that in UK (Nov 2020) - wind never got above 5% - it was only gas, coal and nuclear that kept things running, otherwise we have blackouts. Same every day actually it is gas (only) that enables power to ramp up as everyone wakes up in morning,

    @@TheChrisEMartin yes, but it also means that consumers get cleaner air to breathe and lower bills as wind is now cheaper than gas and coal. Coal and gas is outdated tech, every utility company knows that and that’s why coal will be gone by 2024 at the latest and gas will follow suit in about 20-30 years. Nuclear provides a base load in our grid, followed by wind and solar. After that gas, biomass and hydro is used and if their is still a demand for more they use coal and move some gas plants over to peak demand scenarios where their output changes depending on volatility. It’s outdated tech, it’s going, don’t defend it it’s gone.

    Fun video except fore the recap style editing. Hate that. I just watched the same info from 12 minutes ago, I'm not a toddler, I can retain info for hours sometimes! lol Also, tons of info left out. How do they keep cool? What is a typical failure look like? What does a catastrophic failure look like? Show how the connect to the grid. Show how they stop, start, turn. How do they test the motors prior to shipping? How do they affect local Eco-systems? How about a map showing the amount of homes covered by a "typical" year's generation. Then show amount of space required for turbine-to-home ratio scaled-up. Meaning show space needed to power NYC or London in a typical year. How many, how much space at what cost, etc..? And how about recycling of old units? How much can be reused?

    A wind turbine comes to the end of its lifecycle after about 20-25 years. While 99% of a turbine's parts can be re-sold and recycled, the majority of turbine blades are a challenge, so much so that they end up just being buried in a giant 'graveyard of blades' landfill. In the U.S. over the next four years alone that will be the fate of more than 8,000 blades.

    @The Curious Mind I can - where I live we are not far away from the biggest onshore farm in the UK, where they have both Siemens and Alstom turbines. You can't hear them at all until you are fairly close, 50 metres or so, is the first thing I will say. There's a hum from the generator and electronics, quite similar to what you hear if you're next to a transformer. You a low pitch "swoosh" every time a blade passes by. Also on these ones they drilled a small whole through 1 blade on each turbine which gives a little whistle - that discourages birds and bats from flying too close. The other noise you might hear is a knocking. That's from the guy trapped inside ;) no what that is the yaw drive. Because the motors are very underpowered for the mass at the top the turbine changes direction very slowly, and that noise is just the yaw gear travelling from tooth to tooth. Hope that helps!

    A machine screw is a screw or bolt with a thread type which accepts nuts (or other types of twisted on locking devises) possessing the same thread dimension. Example : a 6-32 x 1" screw would take a 6-32 nut..... and..... a 1/2-20 x 5" bolt would take a 1/2-20 nut. BOTH of them have "machine screw threads" and can be called machine screws. When the fastener in question has a shank diameter of 1/4" or larger, it's referred to as a BOLT.

    The Thor windfarm in Denmark will cost 15,5 billion DKK and have a output of between 800 and 1000 mw, it will probably be around 100 wind turbines, so its around 155 million DKK per wind turbine if the price of the connection to land is divided equally between each wind turbine.

    Lane Shurtleff if that bugs you, you’re part of the problem. Zane H If you call them bolts, then thats fine, I normally would too, however, in Europe (and Asia) they call them screws. In some places around the world, the word screw is used as a noun, and bolt is used as a verb, and vice versa in other places. For example: next we bolt it together with these screws. I repair very large mining equipment and spent years manufacturing it, and the general rule of thumb in our area is that a bolt is used as an assembly with a nut and washer, while a screw doesn’t use a nut, it is “screwed” into something, however when we deal with our German counterparts, they just call everything with a thread, a screw. So my original comment still stands: in your little bubble, they’re bolts and everyone who disagrees is wrong, but in the real world, it doesn’t matter. Q. What are you if you are on an incline plane, wrapped helically around an axis?
