Wind Turbine Specifications
This is a collection of specifications and photographs (when I get  time) of wind turbines that has been put together from any and all available sources. This collection provides a means of identifying discontinued machines, and a comparison of current and past models.

The data and photos have been collected from catalogues (catalogs), spec sheets, brochures, books, web sites, and e-mail messages. A special thanks to Ken Bosley for sending me a collection of brochures and printed material. I suspect that most of these machines with a type of "Alt" are actually brushless alternators (self-exciting, not permanent magnet alternators).

More information about the Dunlite machines is available here.

There is absolutely no guarantee to the accuracy of this information so treat it accordingly!

NOTES

Date: Approximate date of the information presented here Alt: Alternator of unknown type or with brushes
H:     HAWT - Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine BA:   Brushless Alternator (exciter + main alternator configuration)
V:     VAWT - Vertical Axis Wind Turbine PMA: Permanent Magnet Alternator
U:     Up-wind configuration Syn: Synchronous Alternator (grid-interactive)
D:     Down-wind configuration (no tail) Gen: DC Generator or Dynamo
VP:  Variable pitch propeller for speed regulation Ind:  Induction Generator
Blades: Al= Aluminum, comp= Composite mph= miles per hour, kph= kilometers per hour, m/s= meters per second
Price: AU= Austrailia, CA= Canada, US= USA
