From WIKA Instrument, LP
As today's society looks for forms of alternative energy and ways to distance ourselves from fossil fuels, wind power has emerged as a major player in the alternative energy market. Wind turbines function by converting the kinetic energy of wind into mechanical energy to rotate the wind turbine rotor. The rotor connects to an alternator or electrical motor which converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy for storage and consumption.
