  2. Stall (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stall_(fluid_dynamics)

    An anti-stall strake is a leading edge extension that generates a vortex on the wing upper surface to postpone the stall. A stick pusher is a mechanical device that prevents the pilot from stalling an aircraft. It pushes the elevator control forward as the stall is approached, causing a reduction in the angle of attack.

  3. Compressor stall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_stall

    A compressor stall is a local disruption of the airflow in the compressor of a gas turbine or turbocharger. A stall that results in the complete disruption of the airflow through the compressor is referred to as a compressor surge. The severity of the phenomenon ranges from a momentary power drop barely registered by the engine instruments to a ...

  4. IEC 61400-25 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_61400-25

    It is a subset of IEC 61400; a set of standards for designing wind turbines. [2] The IEC 61400-25 standard is a basis for simplifying the roles that the wind turbine and SCADA systems have to play. The crucial part of the wind power plant information, information exchange methods, and communication stacks are standardized. They build a basis to ...

    For a further the explanation of stall and rotating stall, refer to compressor surge. The stall zone for the single axial fan and axial fans operated in parallel are shown in the figure. [4] The Figure shows the Stall Prone Areas differently for One fan and Two fans in parallel. [4] The following can be inferred from the graph :

  8. Wind-turbine aerodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind-turbine_aerodynamics

    Wind-turbine blades in laydown yard awaiting installation. The primary application of wind turbines is to generate energy using the wind. Hence, the aerodynamics is a very important aspect of wind turbines. Like most machines, wind turbines come in many different types, all of them based on different energy extraction concepts.

  9. Stall torque - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stall_torque

    Stall torque is the torque produced by a mechanical device whose output rotational speed is zero. It may also mean the torque load that causes the output rotational speed of a device to become zero, i.e., to cause stalling. Electric motors, steam engines and hydrodynamic transmissions are all capable of developing torque when stalled.
