Item Determinación del potencial eólico disponible en el sector de río Blanco perteneciente al cantón Ambato provincia de Tungurahua(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica. Carrera de Ingeniería Mecánica, 2017) Naranjo Toapanta, Juan José; Mayorga Pardo, Alex SantiagoThe present research work is based on the determination of wind potential through the use of wind (wind energy) in the sector of “Río Blanco del cantón Ambato provincia de Tungurahua”. In the present project, the analytical method was used, in order to evaluate the variables that present the study site such as: direction and wind speed, through the support tower located in the place of study owned by the project " VIABILIDAD DEL POTENCIAL ENERGÉTICO Y SOCIOECONÓMICO DE ENERGÍAS RENOVABLES ", whose measuring devices were placed at 10, 20 and 30 meters of height, from which data was collected for a year and processed and analyzed in this research project, resulting in a wind potential Available from 151,123 W / m2 to 10 meters high, while for a height of 20 meters its potential is 147,327 W / m2 and for a height of 30 meters its potential is 143,548 W / m2 with a predominant wind direction From the East. The implementation of wind turbines for low-scale energy production in the sector of Río Blanco of the Ambato city is feasible because of the favorable winds and a turbulence index of 0,1, which is why it is possible to install horizontal axis wind turbines , since these present greater efficiency and their wear would be minimal.
