Overview: The Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) converts wind energy to electrical power. The VAWT is an omni-directional low wind-speed generator that may be easily installed practically anywhere with good wind exposure. The VAWT is seen as a solid object as the rotational speed increases, making it visible to birds. The VAWT has a 3-phase A.C electrical power connection and 3-phase rectifier. |

Power Generator Description The VAWT converts wind energy to electrical energy. The wind pressure (associated with wind speed) on the cage blades cause the cage structure to rotate. The magnetic field movement across wire-coils produces current flow and an associated voltage. The typical wind-speed to power conversion is shown in the subsequent
graph. Note: wind pressure varies with atmospheric pressure, altitude,
and air particulate composition. All PacWind VAWT products are covered
by U.S. Patent # US 7.109,599 B2 and Patents Pending. |
