Product Description
The HONEYWELL™ Wind Turbine is a novel electric generator (Worldwide patents pending). It consists, as shown in the product detailed schematic, of a central wheel made of aluminum rim, stainless steel spokes, and aluminum hub. Two ceramic bearings are used to attach this wheel to the center shaft of the turbine. Custom- shaped
The wind flows through this wheel with ease and it interacts with the aerodynamically designed blades to induce a rotational motion in the wheel around its center hub. This rotational motion is THE indication that wind energy is being extracted from the flowing wind stream. The magnets travel at a much higher speed for any given wheel rotation because they are located at the rim of the wheel. This placement of the permanent magnets at the blade tips produces the needed high speed motion without the need of any gearing mechanism. The elimination of gears in this wind turbine technology enhances wind energy extraction efficiency and prolongs its operating life.
The permanent magnets at the blade tips and wheel rim travel at high speed within a novel and
An anemometer is attached to the HONEYWELL™ Wind Turbine that produces near instantaneous readings of wind speed and direction at the point of installation.
The electric output of the stator system is a variable direct current (DC) and is connected together with the anemometer wind speed and direction outputs to the HONEYWELL™ Wind Turbine SMARTBOX™ Control Equipment.
The SMARTBOX™ Control Equipment contains custom electronic battery charging circuits, an inverter, and a transfer switch. The SMARTBOX™ Control Equipment also employs a microprocessor which is programmed for optimal electric energy extraction from the wind, battery charge management, and automatically controls the transmission of electricity via the transfer switch from the Grid (switch board) or the attached battery (Not included).
