wind turbine
Introduction:
Wind turbines populate the landscape in many parts of the world. These systems harness naturally abundant wind and transform it into electrical energy. Turbine blades efficiently convert wind energy into a force which turns a wind turbine. This energy conversion is an application of aerospace engineering principles. In this project you will research and design wind turbine blades, then you will design and build your own turbine.

Conclusion
1. Describe the strengths and weaknesses of your turbine design.
The strength is that everything fits together and should operate smoothly. The weakness is that it has not been tested to prove it's efficiency
2. Explain what would improve your turbine design.
Testing it, sanding it down so it becomes a perfect fit
