Although there are many kinds of wind turbines, they can be divided into two categories: ① horizontal axis wind turbine, the rotation axis of the wind wheel is parallel to the wind direction; ② vertical axis wind turbine, the rotation axis of the wind wheel is perpendicular to the ground or the direction of airflow.

The horizontal axis wind turbine is divided into two categories: lift type and resistance type. The rotation speed of the lift type wind turbine is fast, and the rotation speed of the resistance type is slow. For wind power generation, lift-type horizontal axis wind turbines are mostly used. Most horizontal axis wind turbines have a wind device that can rotate with changes in wind direction. For small wind turbines, this wind device uses a tail rudder, while for large wind turbines, a transmission mechanism composed of wind direction sensing elements and servo motors is used.
The wind wheel of a wind turbine in front of the tower is called an upwind wind turbine, while the wind wheel behind the tower is called a downwind turbine. There are many styles of horizontal axis wind turbines. Some have wind wheels with reverse blades, some have multiple wind wheels installed on a tower to reduce the cost of the tower under certain output power conditions, and some horizontal axis wind turbines generate vortices around the wind wheels to concentrate the airflow and increase the airflow speed.
