hello

im looking all over the internet to find the dimmentions required for a mast/pole/tower to fit my vertical axis turbine.

do anyone here know anything on this?

and please yes i know im probably going to die when this is crashing down on the ground due to not using local ground condition parametres / local engineer to calculate pole size and fundament size, the nabers cat is probably going to die too so please do NOT telll me!!!

so im here to talk to other peoples that have some experience and can share some drawings calculations and dimmentions.

im looking to make a stand alone stepped tubular pole about 12 meter high.

my turbine is a 3kw turbine named EOLO 3000
from here: https://www.makemu.it/linea-prodotti/eolo/?lang=en
it have 6 blades

so my qestion are:
1. could anyone help to calculate the lateral load this turbine put on the pole?
2. could anyone help calculate the pipe diameter and wall thicknes required?
    i found this for a light post and it can oviesly not handle the lateral load but it might be helpful







thanks

Hi there Martin. You might have already gone down this route. The manufacturer has a pole available. As per the attached. Are they able to assist or their resellers?

Sincerely
