Respect!!
1) Is it not productive to use an off-the-shelf electrical motor (ie R/C car motor)?
2) I was thinking about using pressure differences + venturi tubes(when you open two windows on the opposite sides of the house => wind current) for an in-house wind generator. Any advice?
Keep up the good work!!

Brilliant!! Im gonna build one this thanksgiving!

Not at all, you will ruin your batteries if you just use a rectifier as I did, lesson learned for me

is the rectifier the same as a charge contoller?

hey bud thanks your vidio helped me understand a lot more. Thanks again. :)

some of it is.

Hi there. I'm planning to build a savonious wind aerogenerator on my balcony since I live on a 19th floor flat here in Scotland. I'm really interested on your battery bank and the type of batteries you use. Could you be a bit more specific about them please? Thanks a lot.

There are approximately 100-150 turns of wire per coil, I did not count them it was only important that they were approximately equal. The wire guage was 16. The generator design has a lot of trade offs which are hard to summarize or genernalize, so make quick designs and spend a lot of time testing if you wish to be successful. Above all have fun!

Hi Green Engeneer! Really great project and specially excellent atitude towards our and the planet´s health!! I´d like to know a little more about your coils. How many turns? Wire thickness and if they are all conected to each other?
Thanks! And congratulations!

Admittedly I don't know much about the natural sciences. Its funny I thought that wind was a result of the interactions of the system of pressure gradients caused by the cyclic heating of the sun and the non uniform thermal coefficients of the different surfaces of the earth (i.e. land and water). What you seem to be saying is that wind is a result of the earth spinning. |
