I have installed a few windows myself, and it is a lot of work. I cannot imagine the amount of work that went into putting all of those windows in. The windows really make that building look nice. I wish that I worked at a building that looked like that. - Moe Tue, 15 May 2012 06:54:33 +0100 http://www.archinnovations.com/featured-projects/mixed-use/zgf-architects-twelve-west-in-portland-or/#comment-206 Four (4)twelve foot diameter rotors give only 452 sq. ft. of swept area for harvesting wind. Since harvested energy (potential)is directly linked to swept area, why would not three (3) at twenty foot diameter. Swept area for harvest is then 1256 sq. ft. Potential is tripled, and the additional 4' length of blade could be kept above their given contours of turbulence. Where will such decisons be published and offered for Monday morning review? - Harvey W. Goolsby Mon, 20 Sep 2010 09:30:35 +0100
