- Synopsis
- This page shows a side view and a front view of a wind turbine, which turns wind energy into electricity. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. Both images have a dashed image border.The side view of the turbine is on the left of the page. In the centre of the image are two arrows showing the direction of the wind. To the right of these is the rotor, going vertically up and down the page. To the right of this is the generator, which is powered by the turning of the rotor. The whole of the rotor-generator assembly, which is pointed into the wind by a computer control system, pivots vertically on the turbine tower down the page.On the right of the page is the front view of the wind turbine. The three-bladed rotor is in the centre of the image with its axis marked by a heavy texture. There is an arrow in the top left of the image showing the direction of rotation of the rotor. The tower has its deep foundations (not shown) in the ground, at the bottom of the page.
