Without wishing to stoke more coal on the fire, I think until we get some new clear facts, it's just a load of hot air and a carbon copy of previous similar threads. Does my frackin head in.
Yeah, they're not visible in #42 earlier in this thread, because they're hidden behind the root collar. It's a different attachment system than the one used in an aircraft jet (turbine) engine, the latter being far more complex in every way.
This picture may help: http://www.wwindea.org/technology/ch01/imgs/1_2_1_2_img3.jpg And that's the end of the story.
why the quote post Bengals ? i was making the distinction that its NOT half a blade as the question was asked , also that the piece is one complete lump . some could imagine it as a prop' . . . sod off you Bore !
You may wish to rephrase the above after a good night's sleep. I truly have no idea what point you're trying to make here, or what brought on your obnoxious aggression. Turds of a feather, maybe? It's quite fashionable at the moment. You're usually a lot better than this. Plum's original question was : "Is {the blade} just one half of the complete span?". A perfectly reasonable question from someone not familiar with the technology or its nomenclature. I tried to explain it in simple terms, commensurate with the question: is it half or all of the span? Regarding your "Bore" ... go take a hydraulic jump (after sobering up).
You'd like to see links to support the technological efficiency, or to support the failings of the technological efficiency?!
To keep the City of Culture thread clear, I've moved all the wind farm stuff on to here. You can discuss your blade width to your heart's content.
Cheers - now about those pesky subsidies ... https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...s-with-550-billion-in-subsidy-hurt-renewables http://www.energymatters.com.au/renewable-news/em466/ http://priceofoil.org/fossil-fuel-subsidies/ And without subsidies ... http://www.worldwatch.org/renewables-becoming-cost-competitive-fossil-fuels-us
I don't know the answer, but who owns the Danish company? Siemens have a habit of buying key partners.
It's not ideal. Still a good view and fascinating to go and look when they're loading the ship up with blades and stuff though. I think the big ugly wall was something to do with keeping noise in for the sake of the local residents.
Potentially good news for the city... Artificial island is planned on Dogger Bank for cheaper wind power http://news.sky.com/story/artificia...eaper-wind-power-10800617?dcmp=snt-sf-twitter
But maybe not for the archaeologists... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/ear...begin-exploring-lost-world-of-Doggerland.html
