AIR 403 Land Manual Document #0049 REV D
SOUTHWEST WINDPOWER 8/20/2001 33
10. SITING
In any location, the closer you get to the surface of the earth, the slower the wind speed.
This is a result of the friction of the earth and obstacles on the surface. Turbulence caused
by obstacles will reduce the efficiency of any wind turbine. Therefore, locate the turbine in a
site that has the “cleanest” free-flowing wind possible.
Power in the wind is the cubic function of the wind speed. This means that small changes in
wind speed can have dramatic changes in output. Each time the wind speed doubles, the
AIR 403 is capable of increasing power by eight times! Even slight changes have dramatic
effects.
The AIR 403 should be mounted on a tower a minimum of 25’ (8 meters) above any
surrounding objects within a 500’ (150 m) radius. If this is not possible, then place it as high
as you can. If this is a roof top installation, it is important there are no objects around the
structure that may block the wind.
CAUTION: DO NOT INSTALL THE TURBINE WHERE THE PATH OF THE
BLADES CAN BE REACHED.
CAUTION: DO NOT APPROACH THE TURBINE FOR ANY REASON UNLESS
ROTOR BLADES ARE STOPPED.
You can get a fairly good estimate of the local average wind speed by looking at the local
vegetation. Look at the following drawings for information on estimating your local average
wind speed. The first figure shows how tower height can dramatically affect output. This
shows how tower height can affect output. (Figure 8 is only an example of how tower height
affects output, not actual outputs of the AIR 403).
