TVA's Buffalo Mountain Wind Power Plant - Wind Turbine (or Windmill) Power Calculator

for 3 Vestas V47-660 kW Wind Turbines

November 26, 2000

Updated April 2006

Note, 2022: The 3 original turbines were rendered inoperable in 2009. (archive, 2022)

How Windy Is It Lately? (weather.gov, scroll down for graphs) Note: 1 m/s is about 2.24 Miles/Hour

Wind speed (m/s): [ Effective Range: >4 to <25 ]
Temperature (Celsius):
Relative humidity (%): [ Range: 0 to 100 ]

Note: The turbines produce power for winds above 4 m/s and below 25 m/s. For 4 or lower, or 25 or higher, the calculator will calculate zero because the turbines will produce zero. Also, maximum rated power is produced for winds between about 14 m/s and 25 m/s. See the Basis link for the power curve.

Quote of the moment
For discovering one's true inner nature, I think one should try to take out some time, with quiet and relaxation, to think more inwardly and to investigate the inner world. That may help. Then when one is very much involved in hatred or attachment, if there is time or possibility during that very moment, just try to look inward and ask: "What is attachment? What is the nature of anger?"
~ The Path to Tranquility, February 5, 14th Dalai Lama ~
