2. A wind turbine has the maximum power output at the rated speed of 12 m/s and a rotor diameter of 82 meters. The cut-in and cut-out speeds for this type of wind turbine are 4 m/s and 23 m/s, respectively. The table below shows the annual wind data near a potential site for setting up a wind farm using this type of wind turbine and the power coefficient of the wind turbine at the specific wind speed. The air density is 1.22 kg/m³. Power coefficient n Wind speed (m/s) 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 0.25 0.5 0.25 0.1 Hours 1190 3000 2400 1700 400 50 20 (a). What is the maximum power output of this wind turbine, assuming Betz limit? (b). What is the average power output if the wind turbine is installed at this site?. (c). What is the capacity factor of the wind turbine at this site? (d). If a wind farm consisting of 100 such wind turbines is built at the site, how much energy does this wind farm generate in a year (in the unit of kWh)? (e). Is this a good site for using this particular type of wind turbine?
