    Abstract: A fluid flow turbine having a turbine rotor with a plurality of blades (also known as “vanes”) for converting the kinetic energy of a flowing fluid into mechanical rotational energy of the turbine rotor is provided by this invention. The plurality of blades are defined by a continuously sinuous curve outer edge that results in the lateral surface of the blades having a lower concave portion for scooping up the horizontal incoming fluid flow and redirecting it to a substantially vertical fluid flow along the lateral surface of the blade. The upper portion of the lateral surfaces of the blades is convex, causing the upper edge of the blades to tail off laterally so that the fluid flow exits the turbine in a substantially vertical direction, instead of turning back upon itself to reduces turbulence of the fluid flow inside the turbine. The fluid flow turbine can comprise a small wind turbine that will produce electrical power at low wind speeds, and can be mounted to the top of a building.

    Abstract: A wind turbine configured to be mountable to a support post includes a first support element having a first track positioned around a central axis and configured to be connectable to the support post. A fan assembly is engaged with the first support element and is rotatable relative thereto. The fan assembly includes a plurality of first trolleys each being coupled to the first support element and spaced relative to each other. The plurality of first trolleys are traversable along the first track to cause rotation of the fan assembly relative to the first support element. A plurality of fan blades are coupled to respective ones of the plurality of first trolleys. At least one off-axis electrical generator is engaged with the fan assembly and includes at least one rotating gear driven by at the fan assembly when the fan assembly rotates relative to the first support element.
