A wind pump based on the American farm windmill design Figures 30.2(b) and 30.7 with rotor diameter
Question:
A wind pump based on the “American farm windmill” design Figures 30.2(b)
and 30.7
with rotor diameter 4.5 m and tip-speed ratio λ ∼ 1 claims to be able to pump 2400 L/h of water from a depth of 30 m when the wind speed is 4 m/s. Do you think this is possible?
