Abstract

A wind turbine with propulsion devices, such as fans or superchargers, attached to the tips of the blades to rotate the wind turbine during non-windy conditions. The propulsion devices can be activated independently and are powered by one or more 12V batteries that are charged by the wind turbine during windy conditions.

Description

Descr4'tion Wind turbines and other renewable sources of energy are becoming more and more important as we all begin to understand the effects and dangers of fossil fuels. Wind turbines are being used more and more, how ever its main problem is when there is no wind it can't generate energy and therefore can't be relied on as a main and permanent source of energy. My invention can solve this problem, by attaching fans or electric superchargers to the tips of the wind turbine blades and used to power the turbine in non windy conditions see FIG: A. The superchargers are powered by one or more batteries inside the wind turbine, as the blades rotate and electricity is generated some of the power generated is used to recharge the batteries that power the superchargers. During windy conditions the superchargers can be switched off automatically, and power is generated by wind power alone and again batteries that power the superchargers are toped up ready to be used.
The superchargers can run simultaneously or individually, timers are used to switch between superchargers if full power is not required (this can also be achieved by mechanical means) and so one supercharger is running at any given time. By distributing power the superchargers individually, reduces power drawn from the batteries and improves its efficiency. The running of the superchargers is determined by the size of the turbine, the required wind speeds, current wind speeds and the required output.
Key to drawings Fig A -Electric inline fanlsupercharger that runs off a 12v battery, the fans rotates the wind turbine blades which in turn will generate electricity some of which will recharge the battery for the fans. The fans can run simultaneously or with a distributor mechanism each fan will be switched on and off individually, so that at any given time one fan is running.
Fig B -Theses superchargers range in size and power output and are capable for running small and large wind turbines
