The current basis of wind power generation is that we believe that the wind is made up of lots of little gas molecules.
Whilst lighting my roll-up this very morning in a nook made up of two walls at 90 degrees, I suddenly realised that wind actually comes in 4ft sections, which explains why it couldn't
make it into the nook.
More research is needed to find out if it comes in 4ft cylinders or maybe hexagons?
So, as soon as I can get on with a wind turbine with 4ft wind catchy bits, I will have the most efficient wind turbine of all...
The very nook...

This may be the single greatest discovery in meteorology. |
|
| |
Also, what was in the roll-up? |
|
| |
Are you sure it is not 3.28084 feet? I always thought air was
metric. |
|
| |
// I always thought air was metric. // |
|
| |
Only since 1795; for example, the Montgolfier brothers were
obliged to use non-metric air in their balloons, and look what
happened there ... |
|
| |
Pretty standard response from the Borg... |

//there’d be a small pile of sound particles on the floor// |
|
| |
I was wondering where those came from. Now I know why
vacuum cleaners are noisy. |
|
| |
WIFRT, I thought "Ridiculous; wind isn't molecules, air is
molecules. Wind is molecules moving!" Then I realised, if that
were all it was, then still-air molecules would be scattered around
the floor among the sound particles, and we'd be flat on our
faces, trying to snort up those lethargic O2s like desperate
cocaine addicts. |
|
| |
So, wind is air molecules moving *together*, and it's the
togetherness that takes up the four feet, as when Fred Astaire
and Ginger Rogers take a flying leap. |
|
| |
Then I thought of a pipe organ. Clearly, air togetherness can be
achieved with two feet in a confined space, viz., on the pedals. |
|
| |
Why then not then in then [not]'s nook? |
|
| |
If the wind hugged the brickwork, yes. I'm afraid what you have
there, [nmrm], is unattractive architecture. |
|
| |
Speaking of which, I think we already have an idea somewhere on
this site for wind turbines sited in urban skyscraper-canyons to
catch all that air that's ducking the nook. |
|
| |
Further consideration suggets that the distance involved is not 4
feet, but precisely 4 feet, 8 1/2 inches, for obvious reasons. |
|
| |
Current scientific weight is towards smooth, not nooky. I think you would be highly derided by the current researchers. Build a proto-type and they will be silenced. |
|
| |
“I want less wind, more nooky.” - The lament of the Ages. |
|
| |
//I think you’ll find that wind is a wave// |
|
| |
Surely it's water that's a wave... |
|
| |
So, the reason that flags wave is because the logs of
air are thrown at it in a completely disorganized
fashion. |
|
| |
Bernoulli's principle might need to be rewritten. |

The word "shenanigans" has no singular. Just think of epicycles. |
