  • What to choose: vertical or horizontal axis wind turbines? The three bladed horizontal turbine currently dominates the market. But there is something to say for the vertical axis model too. Want more information? Go to: www.dob-academy.nl/news/60-se...

    I would have liked an idea of how much less efficient they are, and an insight into why that is. Thanks though, it's a good intro.

      Only VAWTs can brake the Betz limit...by 12% say the scientists.

      Daerrius designs can reach 40% efficiency. Modern HAWTs can reach 50%. So max efficiency difference is 10%

    Do you think VAWT would be better solution on a Solar Power Electric boat since they do not cast much shadow over the solar panels? I was thinking of a better solution for charging the battery banks in the night by using Wind Power to supplement the solar power.

    ¿Is it true that these Vertical Axis Wind Turbines are more stable in high speed winds than horizontal turbines and safer for animals like birds and bats?

      The question is what are willing to pay for 10 KWh VAWT? Do you want to use to replace wood for heating ? Or do you want a small 1kwh for ornamental purpose or for areating a pond ican custom build for a specific need depending on what you are willing to pay

  • @russellknight6418

    Is it feasible to shield the side of the turbine that is moving against the wind direction with a cover that deflects the wind to reduce the drag on that side

    • @shawng5799
      @shawng5799 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Looks like that is what Vodafone have just done with theirs but they have tipped it on its side, so must be computer controlled to stay in the wind.

    • @DOBAcademy
      @DOBAcademy  5 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      Good question! This is due to the fact that "traditional" wind turbines face the wind and in that sense are able to catch much more of the energy potential. All blades are fully driven by the wind at the same time, while in VAWTs this is not the case.

      Especially with the slipstream omni directional design. The angle of the blades creates lift but the air also slides through and up the blades as well. They're more compact and better in lower winds . Also safer. The oil industry is why they have not taken off yet.

  • @SWOBIZ

    Like all wind turbines, these have erratic, fluctuating output dependent on the wind which will cause dangerous brown outs and black outs. Wind is only viable if you include a 100% back-up power supply using reliable generation, typically fossil fuels or nuclear.
