The twin rotor venturi turbine has been fitted with two diaphram pumps supplied by Koenders.
The turbine will start between 3 to 4 MPH wind speed and pumps good volume of air with ease.
This is a great application for this design and it will be used for water aeration at a trout farm pond this spring.
We are modifying the tower and mounting alternators that will be used to prevent overspeed protection by cutting in to charge batteries instead of waisting the energy by furling or braking.
The TRV (Twin rotor venturi) wind turbine allows air to accelerate between the two vertical axis rotors which create a low pressure area because of Bernoulii's principle.
Air is pulled through the rotor into the low pressure area through communication ports at the area of highest velocity in the venturi
This Increases the efficiency by decreasing the drag effect on the rotor blades as they return against the air flow because air is drawn from in front of the airfoils

  • well looks like electricity hits and split H2O, its creating hydrogen ,more wind speed means more electricity goes to the bucket.and thats hydrogen convert from wind.we can save that instead of electricity.smart.

  • @hophillip

    The only hydrogen her my friend is still attached to the oxygen atom by a very strong covalent bond. I wish it were this easy to create hydrogen. Pumping air into the water increases the dissolved oxygen levels of the water.

  • The structure between the rotors is the venturi chamber. The chamber causes an increase in the winds velocity which causes a low pressure area. It basically pulls the air from the front of the rotors to reduce drag and increase efficiency.

  • Can you explain what the object is inside of vawts?
