Wind Turbine Power Calculator
Calculate the potential wind power a wind turbine can generate based on its rotor radius, wind speed, air density, and power coefficient (Cp).
Source / method note
The calculation is based on the formula P = 0.5 × ρ × A × v³ × Cp. According to Betz's Law, no turbine can capture more than 59.3% (Cp ≈ 0.593) of the kinetic energy in the wind. Modern turbines typically operate at an efficiency between 35% and 45% (Cp: 0.35 - 0.45).
Legal / official rate note
This tool is designed for educational and preliminary planning purposes. In real-world applications, actual output varies due to mechanical losses, generator efficiency, and the wind speed profile (turbulence).
