Hi, I'm trying to calculate the power of a Savonius turbine for my project. I am using the formula power = torque x angular velocity. So I am trying to take these two values from ANSYS 18.1 Fluent.
Fluent is giving quite a high value of angular velocity, and a very small value of moment (I'm not sure whether it is moment or moment coefficient). The product of these two gives power which is too low. I figured that maybe I should change the reference variables, but it doesn't seem to make any difference in the moment value.
Can anyone explain how to set the reference variables? I'm confused about what length and area under the reference variables mean. And is there anything else I should check if I'm getting very low moment values?
Edit: I am this method to solve my problem with almost the same parameters- https://youtu.be/8NIOC8Nl91E
What would be the formula to find the rotational velocity of a Savonius turbine assuming it is designed to max efficiency?

It's a big heavy metal fan.
They're huge fans of green energy!
So i was giving my brother a safemoon sunday recap yesterday, and I had an epiphany when talking about what John said about the wind turbines. John told us that there would be a real world counterpart to a wind turbine NFT. Once installed, it could generate you $$$ every time the local government/power grid buys the energy that your wind turbine generated off of you.
Check out this screenshot I took from the Semtive website, AKA the website of the wind turbines that safemoon is using. Semtive claims that the wind turbines will start at a very low price and will pay itself off within 3 years!
So not only will buying this NFT grant you passive income after 3 years once the wind turbine pays itself off, but the safemoon army as a collective will be the ones who grant third world countries access to affordable renewable energy.
So while the safemoon team will be paving the way for this to happen, it will be the Safemoon ARMY that will buy the actual wind turbines/solar panels and bring renewable energy to third world countries. So cool.

Yesterday’s SafeMoon Sunday confirmed something I had suspected the team was working on for awhile regarding Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT) within... as John called it in yesterday’s video... the Metaverse Development Experience (MDE). When they announced that the wind turbines introduced in the December Reveal video a week ago would be connected to NFT’s in SafeMoon’s ecosystem to generate dividends for its holders, my mind was at ease, as it had sufficiently melted a week ago when I initially speculated this after watching the video. Now, this post isn’t to pat myself on the back for correctly surmising an important piece of Operation Phoenix, but to outline the value proposition SafeMoon is offering in the crypto space through this effort, as I keep seeing posts and comments questioning why NFT's matter and that the team should be focused on the blockchain, exchange, etc.
Obviously the blockchain matters, and they're working on it. Almost everything featured in yesterday's SafeMoon Sunday video is predicated upon having our own blockchain ledger that the expanding ecosystem will live on. Presumably, the first turbine clusters SafeMoon will deploy will be in Utah. Perhaps on the roof of the new SafeMoon HQ. If wind conditions are favorable for permanent deployment there, this would be a genius PR move to have a crypto HQ running solely on renewable energy in an industry often mired with environmental dilemmas. Even cooler than that will be the fact that they’ll be paying their power bill in SafeMoon through their eventual blockchain as dividends to these wind turbine NFT holders. SafeMoon will inevitably buy the first turbines and test the ERC-721 NFT’s they mint and connect to the turbines for testing.
MDE NFT Function
If executed properly, these NFT’s would essentially be: 1) a virtual lease for a share of a physical SafeMoon wind turbine. SafeMoon could make these function like modern timeshares where you: 2) only reap the rewards for a specified period of time— for example, two years, and 3) only **receive a portion of
Just a theory.
We know NFT will represent a physical wind turbine.
Let say one turbine cost $1000 to install and connect to homes.
Safemoon will sell a NFT turbine for $1000, if you buy it you will own one turbine in real life powering homes.
If turbine produces 1000W and home is consuming 800W , 200W will be sold to another home and payment for that 200W will be used to buy SFM and given to you, a turbine NFT owner!
Can this be it? 🚀🌕

Great views. Soothing vibrations. With only one room on top of each turbine - lots of privacy.
The last Safemoon Sunday included a reveal that every wind turbine created by Safemoon will have an associated NFT created and sold. These NFTs entitle the owner to a percentage of the money made selling electrical energy. My question is, how would the Safemoon Developers be punished if they failed to repair damaged Wind Turbines?
I trust the safemoon team plans to save a large portion of the money earned from wind turbines, but they also plan to burn a portion of Safemoon tokens. If many wind turbines are destroyed by fierce weather I think the safemoon devs would want to compensate those affected and to seek repairs, but there isn't a legal document being enforced by a governing body at all, so if they for whatever reason did not, they wouldn't be punished.
Edit: It's possible the NFTs just represent ownership of a fraction of all of the wind turbines instead of ownership of a single one
......or maybe a part of one lol. Ill see how much they cost 😜🤟
