VERTICAL WIND TURBINE VAWT DIY PART 3 VERTICAL WINDMILL

This is Part 3 of the vertical wind turbine. You will have the basics for this process. The blades can be easily interchanged offering different shapes and materials to experiment with. This design can create turbines up to 90 inches in diameter and 15 feet tall.

  1. agreed. the whole point is to produce electricity. I got a lot of good ideas from these videos. But iI know from experience how difficult it is to build a generator from scratch. (just having rare earth magnets and wire). Maybe make a video that shows how to make a realistic, power producing generator, and then show practical uses for it.

  2. I like the idea, but I would like to see it hooked to a generator producing electricity. I want to know what happens when you apply a load in a city setting.

  3. Your wife is not hot. That’s because your efficient VAWT is probably providing enough energy to power your indoor cooling needs. But seriously, he is hot and this a great vid. 5 stars.

  4. Very nice, you could put the power companys out of biz! Go Green!

    Thank you:-)

  6. Few videos on youtube keep my attention the whole duration (especially a total of a half hour’s worth). This video was outstanding. Watch out Bob Villa… there’s a new guy in town that uses the same tools as I and doesn’t spend a fortune! Thank you very much.

  7. It looks like you guys are about to duke it out. Seriously your wife looks like she’s going to beat your ass. Can you make another one of these and lip off to her just one too many times so we can see her beat the living shit out of you?

  8. What in the world does that fast morse say at the end of the credits? Way too fast for me.

    Something like: BCUTA1WDC9 ?

    Cool video !

  9. nice video!… gives me some good ideas…… and you’re a lucky man!!

  10. Awesome videos! But I have one question… how do you get electricity from this? I know how it’s done in theory, but what is the practical hook-up, to a battery or to the powergrid. Any plans or anything for that info.

    Thanks =]

  11. just set the blades 1/2 the distance by a 1/3 from each other for maximum effeciency. : )

  12. I realy enjoy watching your videos.
    and i think you do a very good job on your videos.
    and i just wanted to thank you for makingf them

  13. That’s a good idea. You could then mount them with some sort of adjustable feature so you could fine tune the angle of all the blades to find the best efficiency.

    i wanna cut my work in half by a third.

  15. Excelent

  16. pretty lady show lol

    I’ll keep enjoying the videos as long as Denise keeps appearing in them :)

  18. getting any power out of it? *laughter*

    A circles outer path can be considered Linear in direction so all the blades are the same direction. Vertical turbines catch the air flow because the aerodynamic profile is poor in one direction and enhanced in the other.

    The more extreme this difference is, the more efficient the turbine will perform based on blades only.

    There are different designs for speed and torque depending on the type of generator or workload required. Also based on wind history of your area.

    The blades are placed at the same angle left and right. How come it turns one way? Is it because of the advancing blades in front streamline it more (less “grip”) than the retreating blades on the opposite side giving the blades going back more bite? If you look at just 2 opposite blades they would be in equilibrium wouldn’t they?

  21. give me a break… pretty straight forward…

  22. yeap that woman is fine as wine, its good to see a white woman with some junk in the trunk that is not anorexic. Not to mention she is really good looking. I also like the striat forward approach to the vedio clips, thanks a bunch.

  23. watching this video makes me want to go cut something.

  24. Hey Dan & Denise, I am enjoying all your videos.. Very Good *****

  25. great stuff but waaaay too much thinking for this type of contraption!
