  • the windmills of most of the world's wind power generation systems use horizontal-axis propeller blades, which are driven by wind-driven windmills to generate electricity.
  • the density of wind is about 1/625 of that of water, so if you want to build a high-power wind power system, the length of the windmill blades will be very long. These blades are similar to the cantilever structure in engineering, where the weight of the blades themselves The centrifugal force, the resistance, the impact force generated during the rotation are concentrated to the root of the blade by the leverage, and the root is subjected to a huge stress, which limits the installed capacity of the wind turbine. At present, most of the installed capacity of the wind turbine in the world. No more than 2 megawatts, and this also requires the manufacture of high performance materials.
  • windmills that use horizontal-axis propeller blades are still difficult or impossible to start at low wind speeds.
