Transcript of Wind Turbine Competition 2011
Bournes College of EngineeringWindmill Competition 2011
The A-Team
• Brett Kauffman – Mechanical Engineering• Patrick Smith – Electrical Engineering• David Neff – Electrical Engineering
Project Overview:
We aimed to create a turbine that was both innovative and productive.
We experimented with the Venturi Effect in pursuit of innovation.
To increase production we increased velocity ratio and decreased friction.
Kauffman: Transmissions
Neff: Rotor
Smith: Venturi Hood
The 7 judges gave us 103 points out of
100. We produced .77 watts
the next closest competitor
produced .25-.30 watts.
