Vertical Wind Turbine Is Not Good For Home Use:


A vertical helix wind turbine is the other types of the vertical-axis wind turbine, they aren't right for your home use but it becoming very popular now. The rotor shaft of a vertical wind turbine rotates perpendicular to the earth surface. The rotor shaft of horizontal wind turbines rotates parallel to the earth surface. Horizontal turbines resemble the classic windmill and vertical turbines have been nicknamed "eggbeaters" because of the way they look.

The advantages of vertical wind turbine systems are:
1. Horizontal turbines are slow in flowing compare to verticals handle turbulent.
2. When problems arise then vertical turbines are easier and cheaper to access because they are located closer to the ground.
3. They don't have to "find" the wind with a tail.
4. The vertical wind turbines are safer for birds and bats.
The disadvantages of vertical wind turbines are:
1. The vertical wind turbines are costly.
2. Vertical wind turbine operates with very high torque, so in low wind its blades can’t rotate.
