Abstract: A wind turbine blade with governor for maintaining optimum rotational speeds comprising, in combination: a main body portion with a linear leading edge and a trailing edge, a trailing edge, a tip end and an axis end, the leading edge being linear and fixed and the trailing edge being formed at an angle with respect to the leading edge over the majority of its central extent, the trailing edge being formed with a rectangular recess; and an aileron formed within the recess of the trailing edge of the main body portion with a pivot pin extending through a central extent thereof, the aileron coupled to the main body portion adjacent to the opposed edges of the recess for rotation thereof about an axis parallel with the trailing edge of the main body portion.

Abstract: A wing for a wind rotor of a windmill has a main part and a turnable part that serves as an aerodynamic brake. The main part of the wing has an outer end spaced radially inward from the wing tip and a notched partial-chord edge portion extending radially inward from the outer end for part of its length. The turnable part includes a first section and a second section. The first section is a full-chord outer tip portion of the wing that extends radially outward from the outer end of the main part of the wing. The second section is a partial-chord portion that extends radially inward from the first section in the notched region of the main part of the wing. Hinges located at the outer end and at the radially inner extent of the notched edge portion of the main part connect the second section of the turnable part to the main part for turning about a pivot line between a stowed position and a deployed position.
