Aerobine Vertical Axis Wind Turbine VAWT Windmill

NEW SITE!!! http://www.isteam.ca Made in Canada. I am no electrical engineer so designing and building the right generator system is taking me slightly longer...but hey...I am trying, and 2 designs are now almost complete. A 3 phase AC PM generator and a homopolar DC disk. This prototype was designed and built as part of a science club think tank after hours. If you would like to get involved please send me a note. I am just one guy and we can use good help.
www.aero-industries.com - is our shop website. I designed the flash site. As I am a graphic designer and...a few other things.

HI!!! :) NOT BUSY ENOUGH!!! BUT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THIS DEVELOPED AND WILL SELL THIS DESIGN TO ANYONE WHO WANTS TO HELP MANUFACTURE THESE AND OTHER PROJECTS!!!

there's plenty that you can do to increase the efficiency of this design.  If only people where able to put them into a wind tunnel and smoke test them...

But I can see that you need to creat horizontal air dams on top and bottom (scoops), so this design with a solid center disk would be much better. A wind scoop effect is where the real torque comes in and adds no drag on the opposing side.

INTERESTING...THANK YOU...I WOULD LIKE TO BUILD A FEW NEW DESIGNS

what'll really kick ass , is if you can find some kind of "plastic" ( for lack of a better term) you can form into that shape which would have the same area yet lighter and almost as strong.

seems it would respond to even lighter breezes.

just a thought!

Nice design.... I am building a rotocaster capable of mfg up to 80 inch length blades.... It would take about a week to put a mold together for any design...MFG production rate about an hour each...

[billmalta1]

maybe you should try to attach each facing corner with a metal cable.... you have more friction but it will be more secure.... i don t know what sheet of metal you are using but never underestimate power of nature ;o) if your blades open up with speed you could make several damage to your project... anyway very nice job ! well done
