Final project statement

Functions: To provide sufficient energy for a city, the city being Hamilton 

Constraints: must be strong enough to withstand strong gusts of wind and lots of abuse. Must spin efficiently, cost, size,   

Objectives: Maximize efficiency by reducing inertia 

For a large city like Hamilton our turbine objective is to maximize efficiency by reducing inertia. These wind turbines need to be strong enough to withstand strong gusts of wind, so they don’t need to be replaced so often and don’t need to be constantly monitored. If they are more durable, they last for longer making them more cost efficient because they don’t need to be replaced.
