Hi can you please help with this question
Question 3 [10] 3 You are tasked with assessing the performance of a proposed wind farm installation in the Northern Cape, South Africa. The wind farm will consist of several wind turbines and is designed to harness South Africa's strong wind resources. 3.2 A wind farm is planned with 12 turbines, each having a rotor diameter of 90 meters. The average wind speed at the site is 9 m/s, and the air density is 1.20 kg/m? (due to altitude and temperature variations in the region). Each turbine has a power coefficient (Cp) of 0.42. Calculate the swept area of a single turbine rotor in square meters. (2) 3.3 Calculate the total wind power available at each turbine location (in kW). (3) 3.4 Calculate the electrical power output of one turbine, accounting for the given power coefficient. (2) 3.5 If the wind farm operates 20 hours per day for 28 days in a month, estimate the total energy produced by the farm (in MWh) for the month. (3)
