Name Windmills-R-US Site Location Project ‘You are an engineer for Windmills-R-US working to find new site locations for windmills in Maui County. After collecting data, you will be responsible for sharing your results with your team in a professional paragraph. ‘Step 1; Collecting Data Find your location on the (1) Hawaii - Annual Wind Speed 30m map. What is the annual average wind speed at your location ‘The map gave us speed in meters/second (m/s). To change that into miles/hour (mph) multiply your speed by 2.2. \ (epeed fom the map) ©: me x 22 (AL mph ‘Step 2: Applying Data Using the (2) Windmill Power Generator Simulation, determine the most effective blade length for your wind speed. Find which blade length will create the most electricity, measured in kilowatts (KW). Use the windspeed you found in the Annual Wind Speed Map, but make sure you use the MPH speed. hat blade ont generates tne mostkiowats: (1G How many kilowatts does it generate: __\O7O How many houses would it power: _ OG ‘Step 3: Collecting More Data Now, open up the (3) Wind Alert Data website. Find your site location and click on the yellow or white arrow. Click the tab that says “More.” From this new screen that pops up, click the tab that says “Statistics.” The bar graph shows the percent of windy days per month. The graph on the right shows the direction that the wind is typically coming from, called the wind direction. ‘Compare the Wind Alert data with the data you found on the Average Annual Wind Speed Map..

How many months have more than 25% very windy days (>25mph): cA onth 4.) How many years of data are used to create the graphs on the Wind Alert website:_@ yeorS ‘Step 4: Conclusion As an engineer for Windmills-R-Us, you must now present your results on your location to your team and answer the question: would you suggest building a wind farm at your location? Task: Write a professional paragraph explaining why or why not the team should build a wind farm at your location. You must explain the reason you chose yes or now using your data to ‘Support your answer. You must include all of the data below that you have collected and any ‘other information you think is important. «+ stowatsgenertea._\OTO © Blade length: _\AQ ‘+ Annual Average Wind Speed: \2 Usual Wind Direction: _N\ Number of months with more than 25% very windy days (»25mph): “L- What direction should the windmill be facing \ 1. not Hol We should build rf Lon Tana Reo © these, Sarely anu Also generate: aS eo ee caly Can aenerote Dower Jon only born on 1,333 pe Ss.
