Wind Turbine With No External Rotor Blades

Wind Turbine With No External Rotor Blades
d-1096 - The inventor has designed a fluid flow energy extraction system that requires no external rotor blades. The fundamental principle of the invention is to maximize the generation of high pressure potential in a passive structure. This is done through the design of a self-amplifying aerodynamic system consisting of two or more airfoils. The inventor has developed several embodiments for this concept. Market Applications: o Wind Energy Systems o Tidal Energy Systems Features, Benefits & Advantages: The placement of paired airfoils that take advantage of the acting aerodynamic pressures to produce a self-amplifying aerodynamic system. The system can be implemented in wind energy extraction devices removing the need for the external rotor blades traditionally associated with wind turbines. o No exterior moving parts in the wind energy system o Reduces noise pollution in wind turbine systems o Minimal environmental threat to wildlife o Minimal building vibrations o Can be more aesthetically integrated into buildings Development Stage: The initial design has been created but it has not been built and tested.
