What is Solidity of Wind Machine?

The Solidity of a Wind Machine is the ratio of the total blade area to the swept area of the rotor. It indicates how much of the rotor area is solid (covered by blades) versus open space. Higher solidity means more surface area for capturing wind but can lead to increased drag, typically used in low-speed, high-torque applications. Lower solidity designs are common in high-speed turbines, optimizing aerodynamic efficiency for faster rotation.
