It will be a disappointment otherwise. You're dealing with two fundamental issues:- The Betz Limit- The Power in Wind equationThe Betz Limit is basically a theoretical number of the maximum efficiency you can possibly get. At most, only 59.3% of the kinetic wind energy can be used to spin the turbine and generate electricity. Remember this is a theoretical limit; in practice, you're going to be closer to 40%.The Power in Wind equation is given as:P = 1/2 x ρ x A x V³Where:P = power in Wattsρ = air density (kg/m³, at about 1.2 at sea level)A = Swept area of the blades (m²)V = Velocity of the windSo, no matter how good your turbine is, you will get in practice at most 40% of the wind energy converted to electricity. To capture the wind energy in the first place, you have two variables to increase (one in your control, the other not): swept area and wind velocity. The smaller you make the turbine, the faster you need to spin to make any meaningful energy. The only variable you control is the swept area, which means making the blades as big as possible. Also notice that the velocity is cubed in that equation, so you'll generate much, much less power at low wind speeds.In other words, small wind turbines don't work because physics.</blockquote>
