    摘要: A vertical-axis renewable-power generator is an apparatus that is used to efficiently generate power in various weather conditions using renewable energy sources. The apparatus includes a vertically-oriented foil and a fluid turbine. The foil is designed to generate areas of relative high fluid velocity and low pressure on one side and relative lower fluid velocity and higher pressure on the opposite side. The foil is also self-directing so that the foil can follow the direction of the fluid flow. The fluid turbine is integrated into the foil so that the fluid turbine can be rotated by the high-speed fluid flow. The rotation of the fluid turbine can be used to generate electricity. The apparatus conforms to the Bernoulli's principle that is proven to increase the speed of the fluid flow over the foil, which is used to increase the speed of the fluid flow impacting the fluid turbine.

    摘要: A regulatable air-flow acceleration unit for wind energy conversion equipment is presented. The novel regulatable air-flow acceleration unit includes a wind acceleration channel containing pressure-limiting devices arranged in a novel sequential way, protruding from above and from below into the wind acceleration channel which creates a variable degree of restriction. The pressure-limiting devices contain a regulation valve having a rotation axle connected to a tilting body that can be positioned in the radial direction in the case of air-flow acceleration units arranged in a circular cylinder section shape used in vertical axle turbines allowing for smoother and finer regulation during the movement of the tilting bodies.

    摘要: A self-starting Savonius wind turbine includes a frame, a rotor assembly that is rotatable about a central axis of rotation and an energy utilizing device operably connected to the rotor assembly. The rotor assembly has at least two rotors, each rotor having at least two rotor blades. Rotation of the rotor assembly is initiated by wind coming from any direction blowing on any one of the plurality of blades. The rotors are configured in a stacked orientation with the blades fixed at a rotated angular position relative to one another to start rotation of the rotor assembly in variable wind conditions. The rotor assembly is made of a composite laminate and the frame is made of a durable, lightweight material. The frame and the rotor assembly are assembled into a single unit for transportation and utilization.

    摘要: The disclosed self-regulating wind amplifier and brake system utilizes self-adjustable louvers, forcing wind into the capture blades of a wind turbine. These louvers direct and compress incoming wind current increasing the wind speed internally before impacting the capture blades of the turbine increasing the produced torque to the generator shaft at lower wind speeds. The louvers redirect the wind current that would normally impact the shed side of the turbine and create drag reducing the turbine rpm and torque. As wind speeds reach a level that begin to exceed the capacity of the generator the wind itself will actuate the system that begins to close the louvers more and more as the wind speed increases intern constantly regulating the wind current allowed to enter into the system maintaining the optimal wind speed internally that impacts the turbine. During high winds that exceed the capacity of the regulating system the louvers will close completely shutting off all wind to the turbine and redirecting it around and past the outside of the self-regulating wind amplifier and brake system. A modular system with multiple turbines inline and stack is also disclosed. Finally, a self-regulating wind amplifier and brake system that is automatically controlled with sensors and actuator independent of or in conjunction with the self-regulating mechanism.
