Blowing in the wind

The fan at the 17th West Green is now in place and is in its trial phase.  It is temporarily mounted on the back of our tip truck so we can conduct some assessments to determine the optimum operation height.  A sturdy stand will be required which will be concreted in so it is obviously vital to have the height and location in relation to the green exact.  It is currently operating at 80% of its capacity and air movement has been felt across the entire green and will be monitored over the next week or so particularly in the mornings before the normal coastal breezes start up.  Some wind speed figures will be recorded and published here at a later date.
