Objectives

Objectives of this project were deduced from two facts. The first one is that the renewable energies are more and more important in our society. They are one of the solutions we found at actual energetical and ecologial problems we have to deal with. The second one is that more and more Fab labs are created. These places allow everyone to realise self-designed objects. 3D printers are some machines among others that can be used to create these objets.

Based on these two facts, we defined the subject of our project: the design and test of a 3D-printed horizontal axis windturbine.
