The Andean condor’s drag-reducing aerodynamic wings have inspired the creation of a winglet, which, when added to a wind turbine blade, boosted energy production by an average of 10%, according to a ...
The stunning flight of Andean condors are inspiring new designs for wind turbine blade that researchers believe can boost the output of the turbines by up to 10 per cent. Retrofitting turbines with ...
Adding winglets to turbines can help reduce air vortices that create drag on blades and result in loss of power Wind turbines could be retrofitted with technology inspired by the Andean condor, one of ...
