Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.
Dear people
I am new at this forum but I am professionally active as designer of small water pumping and electricity generating windmills for more than 40 years. Information about my engineering office Kragten Design, my VIRYA-windmills and my public KD-reports can be found on my website: www.kdwindturbines.nl At the menu KD-reports you find a large number of reports about different aspects of small windmills which can be copied for free. On the bottom of this list you also find two manuals including detailed drawings of two small battery charging windmills, the VIRYA-1.04 with bicycle hub dynamo and the VIRYA-1.36 with 3-phase axial flux PM-generator.
I have decided to make all my 46 public KD-reports available for free. So this includes report KD 35: Rotor design and matching for horizontal axis wind turbines and report KD 196 with questions and answers about KD 35. It also includes all public reports about safety systems and generator measurements.
Thank you Adriaan for your generosity. When I build a wind turbine I'll certainly be referring to your research.

It is nice to see you now offer your information for free to members of this forum, where as you had tried to charge for the information a few weeks back.
Also good you decided to change your view on this comment ..........
As we all offer information and help here for free im sure you will fit in well.
