vawt-new vertical axis wind turbine

[1dansuri]

Dear MUCE

Can you please say what is the pitch angle.

Thank you

[Downfacingdog]

Where are you, MUCE?

[MrDelanco]

Nice design "low wind high torque"

[klause222]

Do the wings in the negative votes catch telecom rocks clearer?

[TheJimmax]

nice turbine good work

[superjezz]

@111WLee You dead yet????

[EdwinasU]

where i cant get how to made propeller ? i see here they are 5 , i need scheme o plane hot to made ? if somebody can send me that my email EdvinasU@yahoo.com .

This is going to be the future

[Digimastertwo]

I have build VAWTs personaly, and the design i've been using will start at a very low wind speed, with no external help (other than the wind itself).

[Anubis1372]

excellent wind turbine...i like that

[mechtech2004]

The wind blows horizontal, to date the most efficient wind turbines are the horizontal type designs NOT the vertical or (helix type). Horizontal turbines have the most sweep area per diameter, thus creating the maximum torque at low wind speeds or highter. Helix or vertical wind turbines are the least efficient, in reguards to torque or useable power output!!All of these other vertical turbine designs look nice (for show) but are impractical for any kind of sufficient power generation.

[artgoat]

Cycloturbine and Darreius designs have an advantage in turbulent wind, but it's true, when half your blades are going upwind, for equivalent swept area, you're getting less power. However, considering some of them are running wind efficiencies as high as 1/3 Betz, I think calling them "impractical" is a bit harsh.

[FarOutFarSpace]

except when the wind were you live keeps going in too many directions all over the place then these VAWT's end up working better.

That's why there are many different ways of doing stuff.

[sistermitzi]

How does this hold up in high wind situations? What is the output? What is the inititial investment & how long is it expected to last?

[atlanticus]

man, this is great simple design, looks cheap to build... easy to maintain (unlike those horizontal ones), can you provide some link to DIY plan/spec. ? and what generator do you use ? thx

[worras2007]

What is the power (in kW) of this turbine and what it's "cut-in" speed?

[bellaggio1770]

I don't understand how the wings work, how the wind would catch them...since their orientation is identical from all sides, I would assume that the rotation would be negated by an equal force in the opposite direction..?

[tiramsiu]

Dear Sir,

The wings your found in the video seems to in the shape of flate, actually it is angled.

So it is easy to catch the wind all the from and direction.

Yours Faithfully.

[raoulduke25]

A vertical axis wind-turbine works ONLY once it starts moving. The lift forces on the airfoils increase as the VAWT increases its rotational speed up to about a tip-speed ratio of 7 or 8 (even higher if their is no resistance from a shaft). At a complete standstill, the VAWT will not move, but once it is pushed in the right direction, it will keep going until the wind stops.

[parryriposte]

That is true of a two blade vertical but an uneven blade number of three or more will always have one blade positioned to be in lift. Also it requires a generator with no cogging torque. Of course once you go above 3 blades your solidity ratio goes too high and your efficiency goes down the toilet.

hi

thank you for this video

how is look like its wings ..is it like palne wings?

how can the second side turn forwrad the wind

[biodcel]

Wow a tilt-a-wirl, can you strap orphans on it during a hurricane?

[tiramsiu]

Dear Sir.

Will you please make your question clearer ?

Yours Faithfully.

MUCE

[primal111]

if you find tbs next to it one morning its because it looks like a telecom tower..orgonite rocks

[tiramsiu]

Dear Sir,

Will you please make you information clearer?

Yours Faithfully.

MUCE

[primal111]

well there are lots of people like my self in this world that place orgonite around cell towers to stop the deadly rays from getting at people ,your mill loos like one of those towers,lol lolso if there is no windone day you might get a few tossed at it,keep them and put them in your house...

[mmaguiraga]

What is your direct E-mail ?

[mcpotplant]

nice unit :)

[tiramsiu]

Thank you for the message.

It's 1kW.

[morad1973]

thank you for this video

how its wings look like is it like palne wings??

how can the second side turn forward the wind??

thank you again

[smke833f]

Very nice Vawt. Looks like about 10 feet diameter.

Whats the power rating?
