Furling trail
Energy; Wind energy
A wind generator protection mechanism where the rotor shaft axis is offset horizontally from the yaw axis, and the tail boom is both offset horizontally and hinged diagonally, thus allowing the tail ...
Dump load
Energy; Wind energy
A device to which wind generator power flows when the system batteries are too full to accept more power, usually an electric heating element.
Gauss
Energy; Wind energy
A unit of magnetic induction, equal to 1 Maxwell per square centimeter. Higher Gauss measurements mean more power can be induced to flow in an alternator.
Furling
Energy; Wind energy
The act of a wind generator Yawing out of the wind either horizontally or vertically to protect itself from high wind speeds.
Freewheeling
Energy; Wind energy
A wind generator that is not connected to a Load is freewheeling, and in danger of self-destruction from overspeeding.
Electromagnet
Energy; Wind energy
A device made of wire coils that produces a magnetic field when electricity flows through the coils.
