Poor Man's Guide
presents DC Motor Analyzer for Windmill Applications (Windows Only
program)

--------------------------------------------------------
This program allows you to take any DC permanent magnet motor and analyze how it will function in your homemade windmill application. It allows for different blade sizes, TSR, gear ratios, wire length, wire gauge, battery bank size, volts, amps and motor rpms. This takes all the guesswork out of designing your own system. You can even use it to design a double genny system that uses two motors connected via pulleys to a central shaft turned by your blades. This allows you to take two cheap motors, like the treadmill motors and gear them up while also taking the axial thrust off of their cheap little bearings. They can handle the radial thrust, but they're not very good on something pushing at them such as a windmill blade.
(This is a Windows Only program, it doesn't run on Mac or Linux without an emulator)
