Project Title
Adjustable Rotors - Rice Wind Club
Design Challenge
Wind Wonders is working with the Rice Wind Club to create an innovative adjustable pitch system for the club's turbine blades. The current prototype has fixed blades which is not preferable for high wind speeds. By incorporating adjustable pitch control, the turbine should experience greater energy generation efficiency and a more simplistic breaking mechanism.
