Wind Turbine Vertical

Wind Turbine Vertical at the SBE, Nottingham. there are trees nearby and a taller building adjacent. The horizontal anenometer is swivelling around like mad. Even the horizontal turbine on the tower nearby is unable to hold a good angle.

    For helix turbine the horizontal axis design is better cose can gain power from winds lined to its axis too. Like this – Asia Alliance Base. This is one of the best designs ever…

  2. Isnt this the same turbine that Cousteau once used for his ship to replace traditional sails?

  4. vertical axis design is better

    What is the cost?

    Looks like the Helix by HelixWind. I think a german company.

  7. how do you make it

  8. wanna double the power ? add a stator on top :D

  9. Awesome, Now is there a company that sells this specific model in this size? Website?

  10. 3800-6400 depending on the ferociousness of the sun on any given day.

  11. That’s truly amazing! I slashed my electric bill in half! look here: solar.xfollow.me (Copy to your browser’s address bar)

  12. how much is this turbine?

    Why on earth would you look on youtube for patent advice,
    danphobic? If your asking on youtube then I doubt your ready for the whole business venture thing…

  14. vertical axis is the better design.
    wind is turbulent & wind comes from any of 360 degrees.
    pure & simple

  15. In the UK that is.

  16. Hi All,
    I am currently designing and making a helical savonius turbine just like this and the HelixWind and Helyx turbines. They all seem to have patents but I can’t seem to find out the specifics. I just want to start a company and sell budget super cheap versions but I am not sure if I would be breaking patent laws or not. Any ideas?

    sorry that was supposed to say vertical ones… oops

    vertical oves are much better for coastal areas as well. if the wind likes to change direction the vertil ones keep going where as the horizontal machines flip all over the place if they are small or…they cannot take advantage of the new wind direction quickly. the bigger they are the slower they are.

  19. The US uses 3.3 terriwatts of power. How many terriwatts of power could I buy for $819 billlion?

  20. what is the maximum turing speed (RPM) of these windturbines ?

  21. Google the name Windside and you’ll find all the technical information:
    “Windside Wind Turbines are constructed of high quality durable materials to ensure free production of electricity for many years even in the harshest of environments. Their design ensures a minimum requirement for maintenance. When other turbines have failed Windside Wind Turbines continue to produce. A Windside Wind Turbine will probably still be working long after the purchaser.” Windside Wind Turbines are soundless 0 db

  22. the VAWT is made by a company called Windside and the HAWT is a Swift. but these are european manufacture. there will be equivalents in the States. vawt has less vibration, so easier to fix to buildings.

  23. sorry reading thread is a bit mad. isnt this suppose to be about wind turbines. trying to get technica info etc and start reading about weird religious freaks, Why dont you lot get a life!!! and stop preachin. Vertical Turbine Interest only. Now then how heavy is this and does it come in various W like 40W and 100W. What material is this made of. Can someone let me know wher i can get more info, the manufacturer or whatever. Thanks

  24. Hi there, so do you make these? If so do you amke a 40W and 100W VAWT. What material is used? How heavy is it?

  25. OK so there are advantages in both designs.
