Stationary assembly:
The required assembling height depends on how much the
surrounding objects deflect the wind from his main direction. To do this, you can
first carry out a simple experiment by attaching a plastic tape (approx. 3 m long
and 4 cm wide) to a rod that is at least 4 m long, at the upper end and additionally
attach a second tape two meters lower.
If the top band blows perpendicularly or moves back and forth up to 30 degrees,
you have found a suitable location. If the tape moves more or even winds around
the rod, the location is unsuitable. This experiment is only a rough statement and
should only be carried out with light wind. We recommend doing several tries to
get a better feel for it. You do not need to do this if the wind generator is
completely free.
