Building-Integrated Wind Turbines in the Aspect of Architectural Shaping

Today, the use of wind energy is becoming one of the most developed areas of alternative energy. Introduction of means of alternative power engineering in structure of the building demands special events on safety measures that is strongly reflected in space-planning decisions. Increase of energy efficiency of system of the power active building, as a rule, depends on a form of its material and constructive structure. Thus, speaking about integration of means of alternative power engineering into structure of the building, we mean special approach to an architectural shaping. Efforts of architects and engineers are directed on that having united ideas of use of energy of renewable sources, function of the building and art of creation of an architectural form, to receive harmonious result. Search is directed on a choice of forms and designs, not only elements, but also actually buildings which promote increase in amount of the transformed energy.
