Table of Contents … pg. 34 of 564

Executive Summary … pg. 38 of 564
     This report covers the development of a prediction method (AERO) for horizontal axis turbines and the comparison of predictions with test data.
     The prediction scheme is programmed both for Hewlett-Packard 41-C hand-held calculators and for digital computers using FORTRAN. Theory, listings and examples are given.


          INTRODUCTION … pg. 41 of 564
     The objective of this report is to provide a comparison between performance prediction and test results for horizontal axis wind turbines. This report covers the AERO program in two versions (FORTRAN and Hewlett-Packard 41-C) and the comparison between predicted and measured performance of the ENERTECH 1500 and UTRC 1/3 scale wind turbines.
