Re: GERMANY SUBSTITUTES WIND FOR NUCLEAR POWER



Uh, yes and no.  Mostly no.



If the assumption is no edge effect considerations you can put 1 generator at each corner of a single unit. 4/1.

If you have edge effect/or no control then the generator will need to be centered. 1/1.

If you have 4/1unit area in one unit you do not have 8/2adjacent areas  the max is 6/2  likewise a square  of 4 units would be 9/4 and so on, approaching a limit of 1 as each added adjacent unit affect the edge consideration of the previous units.  If the spacing is non-rectangular, such as a triagonal array, the limit will be slightly different but still closer to one than four.

Hi,



I would like to draw your attention to the mistake on the calculation of

area per windmill at your message.



The mesh will look like as shown on the simple figure below,



            |                                     |

|

            |                                     |

|

-------X------------------------X------------------X------

            |                                     |

|

            |                                     |

|

            |            0.125 km^2      |                              |

            |                                     |

|

-------X------------------------X------------------X-------

            |                                     |

|

            |                                     |

If you look at the calculated area 0.125 km^2, this will cover 4 windmills

per sub mesh. So the area per windmill sould be corrected as 0.125/4=0.03125

km^2.
