Standard solution in the energy sector - the wind-pipe

The company SheerWind has developed a unique wind farm that produces 600% more electricity than traditional.

A wind turbine called INVELOX features unconventional design and is a curved pipe of variable cross section, which effectively utilizes wind energy. In fact, INVELOX is a set of bell-air intakes that capture the wind through a tapering pipe down air flow to the blades of the generator.









Such a design has many advantages: the design is safe because there is a huge open blades; simple in construction and operation; the output from the turbine, it turns out useful (e.g. for ventilation of road tunnels) the air flow is faster than the original wind.

The INVELOX wind turbine takes up little space and produces less noise than conventional wind turbines with blades open

Moreover, according to the developers, the INVELOX wind turbine will produce much more energy. This is achieved through the compression and acceleration of air flow and lower weight of moving parts. So, if the wind speed is 16 km/h, in the pipe of the wind turbine it grows to 64 km/h, and the output from the turbine is 24 km/h. during the experiments, the effectiveness of the INVELOX was 81-660% higher than conventional wind turbines.

INVELOX more environmentally friendly than traditional wind turbines. For example, it is smaller in size, less noise and is less harmful to birds. In addition, the installation of INVELOX cheaper – about $ 750. for 1 kW of generated power or just 1 cent per kWh.

While developers are experiencing INVELOX in various modes, and improve its design. It is not excluded that simple design of a windmill-turbine may change the face of modern energy. The wind turbine INVELOX is scalable: you can use them as a huge industrial wind farms and to supply power to individual homes.
