WHY NEW WINDMILL?
It is much more powerful than that usual!
Invention is related to the equipment for kinetic wind energy transformation in mechanic energy and can be used for generation of electric power. The result consists in an increase of windmill capacity.
Known windmill permits to transform the wind power into the mechanic one up to the certain limit, determined by the rotor dimensions. The problem resolved by the present invention consists in the increase of windmill capacity by combination of two rotors - active/reactive and Darieus. Capacity increase proceeds not due to the increase of rotors amounts, but sue to the increase of rotation moment. This makes it possible to use the wind of various strength. Thus, the efficiency of windmill rotor and Darieus rotor fins reaches its maximal value at the different wind velocity.
ADVANTAGES
- Capacity and operation efficiency increase
- The cost of relative power makes 600 – 700 USD which is two times less than the existent cost
- Windmill is compact and has high degree of reliability
- High resistance on strong winds
- Permits to increase the operation surface of rotor.
Current stage of development - Available for demonstrations – field tests
Desired collaboration - Commercialization of final product, partnership, investments |
