The right balance in the trade-off between big foils versus small foils plus bulb will be very different at 8 knots of wind speed and then at 20 knots of wind speed. Once the turbines minimum speed is surpassed it will use its internal features to detect the exact wind speeds and pass the message throughout the machine.
