    摘要: A tethered airborne wind-driven power generation device providing, in various embodiments, a main tether and plurality of auxiliary tethers, feedback controls for continuously adjusting pitch, roll and yaw, and a Vee-shaped configuration for disposing rotors along the frame of the device. The auxiliary tethers avoid slack and resultant transient instability, and the Vee-shaped rotor disposition takes advantage of upwash or any other aerodynamic benefit from the rotors adjacent to it, to improve efficiency.

    摘要: One or more tethered platforms, each having three or more, mill rotors, are operated at altitudes in relatively high winds to generate electricity. These windmill kites use one or more electro-mechanical tethers on each platform. Their position, attitude and orientation are monitored by one or more GPS receivers and/or gyros and controlled through differential thrusts and torque-reactions produced by the mill rotors. The kites can be electrically powered from a ground supply during relatively calm periods, or landed if desired. During windy periods the kites may be used to generate electricity by tilting the rotors at an angle, or incidence to the on-coming wind. In this generate mode the mill rotors simultaneously develop thrust while generating electricity.

    摘要: A control system for a windmill kite having a platform tethered by at least one tethering line, and supporting a plurality of rotors that provide lift to keep the kite aloft and to generate electrical power. The control system comprises a computer and controller. The computer comprises a memory circuitry accessible by a microprocessor, the memory circuitry storing data representing at least one set of stored reference values. The controller arranged for regulating at least one functional parameter of the kite by controlling at least one operating characteristic of the rotors, with the computer cyclically retrieving a plurality of sensed environmental parametric values from sensors disposed on or near the kite, and processes a set of output values by comparing the sensed parametric values to the set of stored reference values, the output values are then forwarded to the controller for adjusting at least one operating characteristic of the rotors.

    摘要: A kite having a flying platform including a plurality of mill rotors, at least one tethering line maintaining the platform at a substantially fixed geographical location, at least one dynamo on the platform drive connected to the mill rotors, and a conductor connecting the dynamo to an electrical transmission and supply system at ground level. The windmill kite has at least three substantially axially co-directed, spaced apart mill rotors disposed in an array which is symmetrical in terms of thrust capacity about each of two orthogonal axes extending from the platform and being neutral in terms of torque capacity about a third orthogonal axes extending from the platform.
