How fast is this in more familiar units (mph, kmph)?norris said:3 m/s
The cut in speed is the minimum wind speed at which a wind turbine begins to produce usable electricity.
The factors that can affect the cut in speed include the size and design of the turbine, the wind speed and direction, the location and terrain of the site, and the condition of the turbine.
A larger and more efficient turbine can have a lower cut in speed, meaning it can start producing electricity at lower wind speeds. The design of the turbine blades also plays a role in determining the cut in speed.
Yes, the cut in speed can be adjusted by changing the turbine's settings or by adding or modifying components such as blades or a gearbox. However, this can affect the overall efficiency and performance of the turbine.
The cut in speed determines the range of wind speeds in which a wind turbine can operate and produce electricity. A higher cut in speed means the turbine can generate electricity in a wider range of wind conditions, while a lower cut in speed may limit its operation and output.
