Archimedes wind turbine

Resistance turbine with horizontally oriented axis of rotation. The fancy-looking wind turbine's name refers to the geometric constructions of the mathematician and physicist from Syracuse, Archimedes. The profiling is based on the shells of molluscs and snails.

Wind-powered heating eddy current

The name refers to the wind turbine rotating permanent magnet stored in a hollow cylinder filled with fluid, which in this way we are trying to warm up. The whole magic is on the eddy currents, also referred to as Foucaultův

Savonius rotor

Savoniův rotor uses the energy of the wind on a different principle than the propeller. It has other characteristics, the more favorable especially in low wind. In the book is described in detail the construction of the facilities and especially all the possible applications, such as pumping water, the production of compressed air, but mainly to the production of electric current. In detail, are discussed all types of generators ac and dc current, with excitation permanent magnet and continuous winding supplied by an external source. For all the structural variants are in tables and graphs demonstrated operational characteristics. Building instructions are accompanied by detailed drawings and diagrams. The obtained performance is up to 1 kW.

Savonius wind turbine

A genius, a widespread turbine bearing the name of its inventor, can benefit the energy of the wind from the low speed and at the same time, it is structurally very simple and the final product from a variety of materials.

Wind turbine – basic division

Let it go! A device for converting wind energy to kinetic energy. This is either used for cyclic movement as is the case with the pump on the water, the older the water mills, hammer mills... Current
