Wind Energy Design provides an understanding of how wind farm design impacts wind turbine performance and offers rigorous design optimization coverage. It explores the blade design features, including aerodynamics, structures, and environmental impact, that yield an efficient rotor.

Demonstrating how theoretical aspects can be applied to produce a new conceptual wind energy design, this book addresses topics on wind characteristics and modeling, rotor aerodynamics, lightweight and flexible structures, wind farm aerodynamics, wind turbine control, acoustics, energy storage, and economics. The new edition features new sections on minimizing the costs of electricity and wind farm design for maximum energy capture. It includes a new case study on deployable wind turbines for defense and disaster response missions.

This book is intended for upper-level undergraduate engineering students taking courses in Renewable Energy, Wind Power, Energy Systems, and Energy Conversion.

Instructors will be able to utilize a solutions manual and figure slides for their course.
