Here’s a list of most modern windmills in the world. A windmill is a machine which convert the energy of wind to rotational motion by means of adjustable vanes called sails. On July 8, 2009 ago AWEA (American Wind Energy Association) report on all existing windmills in America. The report says that 20% of all energy used throughout the country generated from wind energy. Here’s the list of the modern windmills in the world.
10. WhalePower
WhalePower’s company purposely designed their windmill like a blade, this is believed that it can enhance the efficiency of electricity generated up to 20%.
9. Quiet Revolution qr5
Qr5 windmills was designed for used in urban areas that have low wind speeds. If a conventional windmill rotates to follow the direction the wind is not the case with qr5, it was able to catch wind from all over the place and this makes it efficient.
8. Windspire
Windspire is the vertical windmill that almost similar to the Quiet Revolution, with a height of 30 feet, the turbine generate 2000 kilowatts per hour and able to face the brunt of winds up to 105 mph.
7. Mageen Air Rotor System (MARS)
MARS is a windmill that is placed on very high places. It contains helium, the object is able to survive to a height of 1000 feet in the air. The wind that caught will make Mars rotates on its axis, this will produce energy that is transferred directly to the cable ashore. Until now, Mars is still a prototype and still in the testing phase, if successful then this thing is planned to be used from 2010. Suggested places to MARS is the offshore area, an island in the middle of the sea, and mining.
6. Windbelt
Windbelt was designed by award-winning Breakthrough PM, Shawn Frayne. Despite of small size of these windmills capable of generating wind speeds of 40 milliWatts at 10mph. The cheap cost for production is expected to help the people who are less able to obtain good electrical supply.
5. Honywell Wind Turbine
Honywell is a windmill that is placed on the roof of the house and able to work even at wind speed of 2 mph. There is no gear like a conventional windmill, Honywell work with magnets on the fin-fin.
4. WePOWER
WePOWER is a vertical wind turbine that can work well at low wind speeds. The creators of WePOWER claims that it will be most effective when placed on agricultural land, housing, and buildings.
3. Spiral Drag Wind Turbine
Although still in the research phase, but the surface of the turbine are made of aluminum material is able to capture the wind effectively.
2. Architectural Wind
Architectural Wind is a small windmill that can be placed on a roof or building edge. With the assumption that the wind which had crashed into the roof of the building resulted in more rapid air flow so it is able to take advantage of windmill-blade knives to capture the flow.
1. Sky Serpent
Sky Serpent uses some rotors that is placed in a generator, but that each rotor is designed with a certain distance and angle so that each get a ‘fresh air’. Sky Serpent made and tested in California in order to finance the California Energy Commission.
