If you are looking for a small wind turbine with big features,
meet the
Eoltec Scirocco. They are located in France and
described as an experienced engineer owned company that was started in
2001.
They produces industrial, small to medium sized turbines that utilize
centrifugal blade pitch for rotor speed control. The 18.4 foot diameter
rotor swings at a modest 245 rpm and is fully governed at a moderate 26
mph.
Scirocco
centrifugal blade pitch.
The Scirocco uses a hollow fiberglass blade with aluminum root
inserts.
This design is more efficient because they are lighter and respond
quicker to wind gust. Since less inertia must be overcome more energy
can be captured by these gust. Hollow blades are also used on large
commercial turbines.
