Wind Driven Energy System

US Patent:
4182594, Jan 8, 1980
Filed:
Sep 28, 1976
Appl. No.:
5/727347
Inventors:
George W. Harper - Tacoma WA
Walter E. Currah - Tacoma WA
International Classification:
F03D 104
US Classification:
415 2
Abstract:
A system for conversion of wind power to electrical energy. The system provides for use during a wide range of wind velocities by use of the following: an external deflection system consisting of baffles and peripheral turbulence creating walls designed to increase the wind velocity and to divert the wind stream to the aperture of the system; a chamber for the collection and compression of the wind thereby further increasing the wind velocity if necessary; a deflection system for diverting wind from the chamber in high winds; a rigid circumferential tip face at the fan circumference whereby the fan blades fit into the tip race for support; a center deflector to divert the wind force to the fan blade tips; a tip-mounted generating system utilizing induction fields to obtain electrical energy and a system to vary the strength of the induction field so a constant blade speed may be obtained over a range of wind speeds and conditions.
