A Wind Turbine Recipe Book

A Wind Turbine Recipe Book (Jan 2009 English Units edition) This is the latest edition of Mr. Piggott's 'axial flux windmill plans' as used in the courses he teaches worldwide. The Recipe Book replaces his older plans 'How to Build a Wind Turbine' (2005). The Recipe Book is a much better structured document than the older 2005 plans. Rather than evolving 'organically' it is carefully planned to include six different sizes of turbines. Each section offers general advice combined with specific dimensions and diagrams for each of these six sizes and a range of operating voltages. During 2008 the Recipe book was only available in metric units, but in 2009 a new 'English Units' edition is also available (written specifically for North American readers who prefer to use Inches and AWG sizes for wire. It is based on the use of neodymium magnets sized 2" x 1" x 1/2" as available widely in North America.)
