A wind machine that rotates by being pushed by the wind instead of by being driven by lift forces. 3, record 1, English, - drag%2Dtype%20windmill
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
A drag-type wind machine harnesses the component of wind force perpendicular to the surfaces of its vanes ... The power developed by a drag-type machine is just the drag force multiplied by the vane speed. 5, record 1, English, - drag%2Dtype%20windmill

Éolienne dont les pales tournent sous la poussée du vent à l'opposé des modèles dont le rotor tourne sous l'effet de la portance aérodynamique qui s'exerce sur ses pales. 3, record 1, French, - %C3%A9olienne%20%C3%A0%20tra%C3%AEn%C3%A9e
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Les éoliennes les plus simples sont des systèmes mus par la traînée, en fait par la pression du vent sur leur surface. Pour obtenir une machine tournante, il suffit d'utiliser des formes ayant des traînées différentes suivant l'angle du vent [...] Le déséquilibre entre ces deux formes entraîne la rotation : ce sont des éoliennes à traînée différentielle. 2, record 1, French, - %C3%A9olienne%20%C3%A0%20tra%C3%AEn%C3%A9e
