Trees, houses, hills, etc. significantly reduce the wind speed and thus interfere with the normal operation of the wind turbine. These obstacles are felt even at a distance of tens and hundreds of meters. Therefore, in order for the wind turbine to work better, it should be installed in the most open places and, if possible, higher, on a support column.

The pillar can be fixed on the roof of the house if there are no higher buildings and trees around. The lower part of the pillar in this case is skipped to the ceiling, where it must be firmly fixed. The post must be of such length that the end of the wings is at least 2 m higher than the roof over which it is installed. This is done so that the chimney does not affect the uniformity of the wind flow at the wings.

If at a distance of up to 100 m from the future wind turbine there are several buildings or trees higher than the roof on which the wind turbine is supposed to be installed, then the pillar must be placed higher.

Sometimes the pole has to be placed not on the roof, but separately from the building, on the ground. Then you need an even higher pole, on which, at equal distances (no more than 4,5-5 m), you will have to put guy wires with a diameter of at least 7 m. In this case, it is necessary to drive crutches 14-16 mm thick into the pole, for in order to be able to be elected up them, as if on a ladder.

In the upper section, the pole must be at least 12 cm. In this part of the pole, a longitudinal cut is made with a depth of 20-18 mm, to which the riser 44 is tightly attached. The depth of the cut should be such that the engine stop rod does not touch the pole.

At a distance of about 1 m from the top of the column, a working bridge is made (Fig. 11), on which it will then be convenient to stand to inspect and repair the engine. The bridge does this. First, two boards 1 and 2, 30 mm thick and 120 mm wide, are nailed to the pole crosswise (the boards are cut in the middle one into the other into half a tree before that, so that their edges lie in the same plane). Four struts 3 are nailed to the nailed boards and to the pole, serving as brackets for the bridge. From above, three sides of the bridge are upholstered with boards 4, between which gaps of 8-10 mm are left to allow precipitation to pass through.

A pole made on the ground with a bridge and a cutout for mounting a wind turbine is lifted and strengthened in its place. In order to avoid noise from the rotation of the engine in the building, it is necessary to lay boards upholstered with old rubber from the car chamber or galoshes between the roof (or ceiling ceiling) and the pillar. If the post is installed on the ground, then its lower (butt) part is buried in a hole about 1 m deep.

The wind turbine is mounted on a fixed pole, and the cutout for the riser is checked for verticality by a plumb line, since a wind turbine mounted on an obliquely fixed riser will be poorly installed downwind.

The wind turbine must be carefully inspected before climbing the pole. Bearings should be washed with gasoline (in extreme cases, pure kerosene) and lubricated with oil. All bolts must be well fastened,

The cable to stop the engine is lowered along the pole to the ground. If the pole is installed on the roof, then this traction is carried out on blocks so that it can be easily pulled from the ground and thereby stop the engine. When the engine is stopped, the cable is not tensioned instantly, but within 3-4 seconds; these wings are protected from overload and breakage.

Before starting the engine for the first time, it is necessary to tie a rope to the end of the tail, near the feather 21, and lower its end down to the ground, so that by pulling the rope sideways, you can stop the engine by pulling it out of the wind. This may be necessary if any defects are suddenly found in the stop mechanism (for example, if the cable breaks).

The gap between the generator and the metal tape covering the collector must be covered with a mixture of wax and grease so that rainwater does not enter the generator housing. The brushes on the generator should be released so that their tension is weaker than when installing the same generator on the car. There is enough pressing force up to 200 g. This will significantly increase the life of the generator (and brushes) and facilitate the operation of the engine in light winds.

The electrical wires from the generator, descending down the support pole, are led to insulators fixed on a special bar under the edge of the roof, as shown in fig. 12. From these insulators, the ends of the wires are passed through a hole in the wall of the house.

Traffic noise delays the growth of chicks 06.05.2024

The sounds that surround us in modern cities are becoming increasingly piercing. However, few people think about how this noise affects the animal world, especially such delicate creatures as chicks that have not yet hatched from their eggs. Recent research is shedding light on this issue, indicating serious consequences for their development and survival. Scientists have found that exposure of zebra diamondback chicks to traffic noise can cause serious disruption to their development. Experiments have shown that noise pollution can significantly delay their hatching, and those chicks that do emerge face a number of health-promoting problems. The researchers also found that the negative effects of noise pollution extend into the adult birds. Reduced chances of reproduction and decreased fertility indicate the long-term effects that traffic noise has on wildlife. The study results highlight the need ... >>

A New Way to Control and Manipulate Optical Signals 05.05.2024

The modern world of science and technology is developing rapidly, and every day new methods and technologies appear that open up new prospects for us in various fields. One such innovation is the development by German scientists of a new way to control optical signals, which could lead to significant progress in the field of photonics. Recent research has allowed German scientists to create a tunable waveplate inside a fused silica waveguide. This method, based on the use of a liquid crystal layer, allows one to effectively change the polarization of light passing through a waveguide. This technological breakthrough opens up new prospects for the development of compact and efficient photonic devices capable of processing large volumes of data. The electro-optical control of polarization provided by the new method could provide the basis for a new class of integrated photonic devices. This opens up great opportunities for ... >>

Smart tweezers for microbiome research 11.01.2024

Scientists at Mount Sinai School of Medicine are introducing an innovative tool, mEnrich-seq, that can be compared to “smart tweezers” for studying microbiomes. This technique, which focuses on bacterial DNA methylation, promises to revolutionize medical research by providing precise information about specific strains of bacteria in complex microbiomes. The potential applications of this tool in the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases could be an in-depth exploration into the world of microscopic organisms.

Sequencing bacterial genomes has revolutionized the understanding of microbial organisms. However, analyzing entire microbiomes containing many different bacteria is a complex task comparable to distinguishing between musical instruments in an orchestra. mEnrich-seq addresses this issue by focusing on a signature feature—bacterial DNA methylation.

Each species of bacteria has unique chemical markers in its DNA, similar to human fingerprints. mEnrich-seq is designed to recognize these “secret codes” and highlight samples containing target bacteria, suppressing background noise in the microbiome.

In practice, mEnrich-seq has demonstrated impressive performance. Specifically, the tool successfully isolated and sequenced E. coli genomes from urine samples of patients with urinary tract infections, outperforming traditional methods with more than 99,97% genome capture and high sensitivity.

In addition to E. coli, mEnrich-seq was used to analyze Akkermansia muciniphila, a bacterium associated with obesity and type 2 diabetes. Now, thanks to this tool, the study of this rare bacterium is becoming more accessible, opening new perspectives in understanding its role in complex diseases.
