A wind turbine designed too to come into operation at a minimum wind speed is called _________(a) Cut in velocity(b) Windward(c) Cut out velocity(d) Upwind locationThe question was asked at a job interview.This interesting question is from Wind Turbine Operation topic in section Wind Energy of Energy Engineering

Answer»

The correct option is (a) Cut in velocity

Best explanation: Due to several loss in efficiency and POWER at low wind VELOCITIES, a wind turbine is designed to come into operation at a MINIMUM wind speed called the cut in velocity. Thus the wind turbine operates with variable LOAD over a narrow range between cut in.
