    This document outlines the key topics covered in a course on mechanical engineering for wind power. It introduces mechanical engineering and machines, then uses wind turbines as an example. It discusses the main components of a wind turbine, including the rotor blades, drive train, generator, and how mechanical engineers design each component to withstand the loads involved in energy generation from wind power over long lifetimes. It also covers the aerodynamics of wind blade design and the structural design of blades to resist the predicted loads.

    PLAN :

    1/INTRODUCTION

    2/MECHANICAL MACHINES

    3/WIND POWER EXAMPLE

    4/MECHANICAL ENGINEERING OF THE WIND TURBINE

    5/WIND TURBINE MACHINE ELEMENT DESIGN

    6/BLADE AERODYNAMICS

    7/BLADE STRUCTURE

    8/ CONCLUSION
    : INTRODUCTION /1

    • AN ENGINEERING DISCIPLINE THAT ENCOMPASSES THE


    GENERATION AND APPLICATION OF HEAT AND MECHANICAL
    POWER AND THE DESIGN, PRODUCTION, AND USE OF
    MACHINES.

    : MECHANICAL MACHINES /2
    • A MACHINE IS AN APPARATUS USING OR APPLYING
    MECHANICAL POWER AND HAVING SEVERAL PARTS, EACH
    WITH A DEFINITE FUNCTION AND TOGETHER PERFORMING A
    PARTICULAR TASK.
    • PUMPS, COMPRESSORS, INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES,
    WIND TURBINES
    • PIPING SYSTEMS AND PRESSURE VESSELS, REACTORS, HEAT
    EXCHANGERS § CONSUMER GOODS AND PRODUCTS:
    EVERYTHING FROM COFFEE GRINDERS TO TOOTHBRUSHES
    • MATERIAL HANDLING EQUIPMENT - CONVEYERS, ROBOTS,
    PRODUCTION ASSEMBLY LINES
    • VEHICLES - CARS, TRUCKS, HEAVY EQUIPMENT, BUSES,
    AIRCRAFT, SHIPS
    • POWER GENERATION EQUIPMENT: WIND POWER,
    HYDROELECTRIC, NUCLEAR, GEOTHERMAL

    : WIND POWER EXAMPLE /3


    • IN THE NEXT SLIDES WE WILL EXAMINE THE ROLE
    MECHANICAL ENGINEERS PLAY IN THE DESIGN,
    MANUFACTURE AND MANAGEMENT OF SYSTEMS FOR
    ENERGY GENERATION USING WIND
    TEXT IN BOLD IDENTIFIES RELEVANT COURSEWORK FROM THE
    UNDERGRADUATE

    MECHANICAL ENGINEERING OF THE WIND /4


    :TURBINE
    • A WIND TURBINE EXTRACTS ENERGY FROM THE MOVEMENT OF AIR IN
    THE ATMOSPHERE
    • HERE IS THE BASIC CONCEPT OF OPERATION
    WIND TURBINE MACHINE ELEMENT DESIGN /5
    • THE ROTOR BLADES SPIN A MAIN SHAFT AT LOW SPEED THAT IS
    SUPPORTED BY BEARINGS
    • THE LOW-SPEED SHAFT DRIVES GEARS IN A GEAR BOX WHICH IN TURN
    DRIVES THE GENERATOR; ALL HAVE BEARINGS
    • THE BLADES CAN BE ROTATED ON THEIR AXES TO ADJUST PITCH AND
    ARE SUPPORTED BY THEIR OWN BEARINGS
    • THE WHOLE ASSEMBLY CAN BE TURNED INTO THE WIND VIA THE YAW
    BEARING
    • ALL OF THESE DEVICES HAVE TO BE ANALYZED AND DESIGNED TO
    WITHSTAND THE GIVEN LOADS OVER A LONG LIFETIME
    • THE DESIGN OF THESE COMPONENTS REQUIRES COURSES LIKE
    DYNAMICS, MECHANICS OF MATERIALS, AND MECHANICAL DESIGN
    BLADE AERODYNAMICS /6
    • TO UNDERSTAND THE LOADS ON THE STRUCTURE WE FIRST
    NEED PREDICTIONS FOR THE FORCES GENERATED BY THE
    AIRFLOW OVER THE BLADES
    • THE WIND AND BLADE ROTATION CAUSE FORCES OF LIFT
    AND DRAG WHICH YOU CAN LEARN ABOUT IN FLUID
    MECHANICS AND AERODYNAMICS COURSEWORK

    BLADE STRUCTURE /7
    IF WE KNOW WHAT LOADS ARE APPLIED TO THE BLADE, WE CAN
    NOW INVESTIGATE WHICH MATERIALS ARE BEST TO RESIST THE
    LOADS.

    8/CONCLUSION :
    • WIND POWER IS A POPULAR SUSTAINABLE, RENEWABLE
    ENERGY SOURCE THAT HAS A MUCH SMALLER IMPACT ON
    THE ENVIRONMENT.
